About this opportunity

Dorchester County, South Carolina is seeking proposals for Record Conversion and Preservation Services for the Register of Deeds Office through RFP No. 2026-11. The procurement involves comprehensive document scanning, indexing, imaging, and preservation services for deeds, plats, mortgages, conveyance indexes, and other vital records, with the goal of digitizing documents in compliance with National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC) standards. Proposers must perform on-site scanning of bound, unbound, oversized, and fragile documents at 300 dpi resolution, conduct double-key data entry indexing, and ensure original document preservation. The evaluation criteria will include relevant experience (25%), technical approach (25%), staffing and qualifications (15%), security and compliance (15%), and cost proposal (20%), with proposals scored on a 0-5 point scale. A mandatory site visit and pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for October 7, 2025, at 10:00 AM at the Register of Deeds Office, with proposals due on October 16, 2025, at 2:00 PM, and the last day for questions being October 10, 2025, at 5:00 PM. The contract term will be one year with options to renew for up to four additional one-year terms.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The successful proposer will be required to deliver two encrypted external storage devices containing final images and index files that are compatible with the county's existing I3Vertical Records Management System. While no incumbent vendor is identified, the project requires advanced technological capabilities, including specialized scanning equipment, 100% thumbnail and full-size image inspection, sequential file naming conventions, and double-key data entry with 98%+ accuracy. The proposal will require vendors to demonstrate robust technical infrastructure, including security protocols, document tracking procedures, equipment inventory, storage facility specifications, and comprehensive image processing capabilities. Although a specific budget range is not disclosed, the complexity of the project suggests a significant investment in document conversion and preservation services, with potential for multi-year engagement through the renewable contract structure.
