Description
The U.S. Government Publishing Office, on behalf of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is seeking a prime contractor to digitize approximately 15,000 pages of agency official records—including maps, drawings, photographs, and related materials—into high‑resolution greyscale PDF files with OCR and required metadata. The contractor must use GPO‑specified scanning standards, perform daily quality checks with the DICE Device Level Target, and deliver the final electronic files by 30 June 2026. All work must be performed in‑house; subcontracting is prohibited, and the contractor must handle material pickup, secure file upload, and final destruction of originals after agency approval.
• Scan ~15 000 pages (single‑ and double‑sided) in 3‑Star FADGI greyscale quality, 300 ppi, no compression, with OCR.
• Provide required metadata per file (office symbol, RHA numbers, accession numbers, etc.) and follow NARA archival handling rules.
• Perform daily scanner performance verification; any deviation triggers an immediate stop and re‑scan at no extra cost.
• Deliver electronic PDFs via GPO file‑sharing portal; retain all records until agency sign‑off and then shred originals.
