Description
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) is issuing an RFI to gather industry input on a cloud‑hosted Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) that will replace its legacy on‑premises solution and meet FBI CJIS/EBTS security standards. The state seeks a full‑service partner to design, implement, and support a scalable, secure biometric matching platform, including data migration, hardware deployment, and ongoing operations.
• Design, provision, and maintain a highly‑available cloud architecture compliant with CJIS and EBTS security requirements.
• Migrate >5 million legacy fingerprint records and digitize ~250 000 hard‑copy cards, preserving all associated metadata.
• Supply and install turn‑key fingerprint capture workstations, batch scanners, printers, and related peripherals compatible with Windows 10+.
• Deliver comprehensive documentation, 24/7 monitoring, disaster‑recovery (4‑hour RTO, zero‑loss RPO), and semi‑annual DR testing reports.
• Provide licensing, software updates, role‑based access controls, MFA, and ongoing technical support, including a detailed cost proposal for search pricing, hardware, DR, migration, and training.
