Paper to Digital Document Scanning, Indexing and Digitization Service

The buyer seeks a vendor to provide paper to digital document scanning, indexing, and digitization services for approximately 53 priority boxes of unscanned records, estimated at 141,655 pages. The vendor must perform the work offsite, scanning images at 300 to 600 ppi, with 600 ppi recommended for clean printed type with high inherent contrast. The scope requires preparing files for scanning, addressing fasteners and bindings, preserving original order, and handling fragile materials appropriately. Additionally, the vendor must create searchable files using OCR where technically feasible and appropriate, and verify digitized files for completeness, order, legibility, naming accuracy, metadata accuracy, OCR searchability, and indexing accuracy. This procurement opportunity is a Total Small Business Set-Aside under FAR 19.5, and eligibility is restricted to onshore USA organizations only. The buyer is currently looking for proposals to establish the budget. The provided text contains no specific evaluation criteria or key-date details.
