5.3 Document Conversion:

5.3.2 Contractor shall inventory, load, and securely transport all hardcopy files from USACIL to Contractor’s facilities for conversion maintaining chain of custody and secure storage until returned or destroyed.

5.3.2.1 Record Preparation - The files contain staples and clips that must be removed by Contractor during the preparation process. The fasteners do not need to be re-attached (no reconstruction) but the documents shall be placed back into the original folders if returned to USACIL for any reason.

5.3.3 Indexing/File Naming

5.3.3.1 Contractor will create multipage searchable PDF digital files for each case file indexed/named by the USACIL Case Number as follows:

USACIL Case Number* Date Received at USACIL Agency Name (Unit ID number if present) Agency Case Number Subject Name(s): Last, First Middle Victim Name(s): Last, First Middle Location of Origin (Post, Base, Station, or city of submitting agency)

*USACIL Case Numbers followed two different formats throughout our history. Prior to 2015 the format was “YYYY-CIDXXX-XXXX-AX/RX” where “YYYY” is a four digit year, “CIDXXX” is the laboratory unit designation (CID131 for CONUS), “XXXX” is a case sequence number that resets to zero for every calendar year (01 January), RX represents resubmissions of evidence under a given case number, and “AX” represents additional evidence submissions under a given case number. After 2015 the format changed to “YYYY-ATL-XXXXX” where every case submission gets a unique laboratory sequence number with “YYYY” being the calendar year and “XXXXX” being a sequence number that resets to zero every calendar year (01 January).

5.3.3.2 Digital Media: All scanned documents shall be inventoried and provided to the Government with complete manifest files of source file and digital copy name correlation. All media must be Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliant, encrypted media. All files will have the required metadata as outlined in section 5.3.3.1 adhering to the naming convention outlined in section 5.3.3.1.

5.3.3.2 Digitize each page/document in every file, to include, single sided pages, duplex pages, multi part fan-fold pages, "onion-skin" pages, non-standard sized pages, 3x5 cards, notes and any other additional types of paper or film based information found in each file. Black and White for text, grayscale for grayscale images, and color for photos and graphics containing color.

5.3.3.3 Automated OCR is acceptable; however, Contractor shall ensure complete legibility of all PDF images; Clarity must be equal or higher quality enabling the viewer to easily read the digitized record. Any damaged, faded or otherwise illegible document pages shall be identified by Contractor prior to scanning using a “Best Available Copy” stamp in the border of the document page.

5.3.3.4 Fingerprint Records USACIL’s AFIS database has moved to a logically separated portion of the FBI’s NGI called the USACIL SPC (Special Population Cognizant). AFIX Tracker files in USACIL’s former AFIS database need to be migrated in order to populate the database. Due to various issues with the EFTS files from the AFIX Tracker, it has been determined that it is most feasible to scan the hardcopy standards from scratch to the latest EBTS 10.x compliant file for ingestion into the SPC.

-There are approximately 150,000 sets of hardcopy standards that need to be scanned. Each set contains tenprints and/or palm prints with writer’s palms, or approximately 450,000 pages. This equates to approximately 173 file boxes (at 15” each).

-Many hardcopy standards, especially the palms, are in non-standard format (i.e., not on a FD card but inked onto white bond paper) and may not have plain impressions either.

-The hardcopy standards need to be scanned at 1000 ppi resolution into the latest EBTS 10.x compliant file, which can be found at the FBIBiospecs site under the EBTS Archive at https://fbibiospecs.fbi.gov/ebts- 1/transaction.

5.3.3.5 Image Cleanup - Incorporate scanning methodologies to provide a quality image that can be easily read and printed. These methodologies include, but are not limited to, de-speckling, de-skewing, color detection, gamma correction, correction of character dilation or erosion, background smoothing, content rotation and background cropping.

5.3.4 Project Completion

5.3.4.1 Once the USACIL COR has validated all records have been scanned completely into an acceptable format:

- Contractor will certify that all USACIL data has been securely wiped from all contractor scanning and storage systems.

- Contractor will securely destroy and certify destruction of all hardcopy records and documents not designated for return to USACIL.
