About this file

This is a Statement of Need for a federal procurement request by the Joint Electromagnetic Warfare Center (JEWC), Purchase Request F2MTL26096A001, for an enclosed data destruction system.

JEWC seeks to acquire a self-contained, mobile, and secure data destruction system capable of sanitizing and physically destroying magnetic storage media in compliance with National Security Agency (NSA) standards for Top Secret data handling. The procurement addresses an operational security risk resulting from the organization's current outdated and non-compliant processes for managing end-of-life data storage media. The required system consists of three integrated components: (1) a Garner TS-1XT NSA/CSS Listed Top Secret Degausser or equivalent, (2) a Garner Enclosed Destruction Cart (CART-EDC) or equivalent, and (3) a Garner IRONCLAD Erasure/Destruction Verification System or equivalent. The degausser must generate a minimum 2.0 Tesla magnetic field, complete erasure cycles in 15 seconds or less, and be listed on the NSA/CSS Evaluated Products List. The cart must be a mobile, enclosed platform with industrial-grade flat-free tires, brakes, ergonomic handle, and removable locking door, powered by a single shore power connection. The IRONCLAD verification system must automatically capture JPG images of media, track serial numbers and user/witness identifications, generate exportable reports in PDF/CSV/Excel formats as Certificates of Erasure and Destruction, and integrate seamlessly with both the degausser and a PD-5 Destroyer. Delivery is required to JEWC at 2 Hall Blvd, Suite 116, San Antonio, TX 78243, with delivery to occur outside building B2007 without facility access required.

Statement of Need Joint Electromagnetic Warfare Center (JEWC)

Purchase Request: F2MTL26096A001 Procurement Request for Enclosed Destruction Cart

1. PURPOSE

The purpose of this statement of need is for a self-contained mobile, and secure data destruction system. The primary objective is to acquire a comprehensive solution capable of completely sanitizing and physically destroying both magnetic (rotational) in accordance with National Security Agency (NSA) standards for handling Top Secret data. This capability is critical for ensuring compliance with data security protocols and mitigating the risk of data spillage. The system must provide a complete, verifiable audit trail of the erasure for accountability and reporting purposes.

2. CURRENT CHALLENGE

Currently, the unit may face an untenable operational security risk due to an outdated, fragmented, and non-compliant process for handling end-of-life data storage media. The existing ad-hoc methods for destroying classified and sensitive hard disk drives are inadequate for the modern data landscape, exposing the organization to significant mission, security, and compliance failures.
