About this opportunity
The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is seeking a contractor to decrypt and convert mixed media files related to the FAA 9/11 Project into archivally stable digital formats that can be uploaded into NARA's Electronic Records Archive. The procurement involves transferring data from various legacy formats including data cartridge tapes, magnetic tapes, optical disks, and removable magnetic disks, with requirements to reproduce radar data files in PDF and TXT formats and audio files in uncompressed WAV specifications. Contractors must demonstrate the ability to recover and assess files in their native formats while handling sensitive historical records with proper security and preservation protocols. The evaluation will be based on technical understanding and approach, relevant past performance, and price, with technical factors being significantly more important than price considerations. The solicitation has been amended twice, with the final quotation deadline extended to October 8, 2025 at 12:00 p.m. eastern time, and questions and sample record requests were originally due by September 15, 2025.
This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and falls under NAICS Code 518210 for Computing Infrastructure Providers, Data Processing, Web Hosting, and Related Services. No current contractors or incumbents are identified in the solicitation documentation, and while the solicitation includes multiple line items for converting different media types, the total contract ceiling price is to be determined by submitted pricing proposals. The contract includes a performance period of up to five years, though specific quantities of media files to be converted are not detailed in the available documentation. Work will be performed at NARA's facility located at 9591 Baltimore Ave, College Park, MD 20740, and contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management to be eligible for award consideration.
