US Coast Guard Business Cards (A-1)(A-2)
This contract covers the production of U.S. Coast Guard recruiting business cards, including online ordering, composition, data capture, printing, trimming, packing, and distribution. Approximately 500 orders are placed per year, averaging 40 per month, with volume potentially rising to 75 per month from October through December. Each order consists of 500 cards per individual name, printed face and back on a 3-1/2 x 2 trim size. The face features metallized foils with variable data, while the back includes a full-color image and a variable QR code, both finished with a clear high-gloss varnish or aqueous coating. Print orders are issued monthly for all online orders placed by the end of the ordering month or within five work days after month-end, whichever comes first.
