Ormond Beach, Fla. – The Book Manufacturers’ Institute (BMI), has launched a new Request for Quote (RFQ) tool for those looking to get multiple bids for book printing. The tool, named BMIsource, will allow users to either search the BMI Member Directory by various capabilities in order to reach out directly to manufacturers, or fill out a form with job details that will be sent to manufacturers to review and respond with a quote.

“Publishers and others looking to get books printed are always looking to the BMI to find printers. Up until now, our directory was their only option. With BMIsource, we’ve made it super easy to get in touch with numerous quality manufacturers by simply filling out one form. We’re excited to deliver a tool that publishers have been requesting from us,” said BMI Executive Director Matt Baehr.

Users can visit www.bmibook.com/bmisource to access both the member directory as well as the RFQ form submission page.
