January 5, 2022 — The Michigan Department of Treasury will be transitioning key digital stamp functionality from OpSec Security, Inc to SICPA Product Security over the next several months. Our goal is to deliver the enhanced functionality and service with minimal disruption to Michigan Authorized Stamping Agents. Existing stamping equipment and all related hardware will remain the same as a result of this transition, however, the program will include a new stamp design and ordering software.
