Request for Information

The U.S. Government Publishing Office is seeking input from qualified vendors and organizations experienced in the production, packaging, and mailing of printed materials for Census-related initiatives, including questionnaire booklets, letters, inserts, business reply envelopes, and outgoing envelopes. This request for information aims to gather market insights to shape future requirements and ensure the government can effectively procure high-quality, reliable services for large-scale printed communication needs. Vendors are encouraged to respond with details about their capabilities, capacity, and prior experience supporting federal printing and distribution efforts. The solicitation, designated RFI 0001 (R-1), is open for responses until August 21, 2026, and is not subject to any set-aside restrictions. As a federal agency initiative, it does not specify a NAICS code or designated point of contact, and responses will be used to inform upcoming contract solicitations rather than constitute a binding obligation. Interested parties can submit their information through the GPO’s official vendor involvement portal to contribute to the development of future procurement strategies for Census product fulfillment and delivery.
