Background The City of Omaha is issuing a Request for Bid (RFB) for the production of commemorative badges and lapel pins for the Omaha Police Department (OPD) to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of the United States. This project aims to create a special commemorative badge that reflects the significance of this milestone, with specific requirements outlined for vendors and manufacturers. Work Details The contract requires the vendor/manufacturer to produce 900 commemorative badges, with two versions: one in silver for police officers and one in gold for command ranks.

The vendor must also have the capability to fulfill secondary orders on an individual basis directly to purchasers, such as officers wanting additional badges or retired officers wishing to order badges. Pricing for these secondary orders will be handled outside of this bidding process. Period of Performance The work is expected to commence upon contract award and must adhere to specified timelines for production and delivery as outlined in the bid documents. Place of Performance The products will be delivered to locations specified by the City of Omaha, Nebraska. Bidder Requirements Bidders must submit a bid bond or an acceptable substitute as specified in the solicitation. The surety company issuing the bid bond must be licensed by the State of Nebraska. Bidders are required to complete a Responsible Contractor Compliance Form (RC-1) and comply with all applicable laws regarding employment eligibility verification through E-Verify.
