THIS SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE IS ISSUED SOLELY FOR INFORMATIONAL AND PLANNING PURPOSES AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A SOLICITATION. No formal solicitation documents exist at this present time.

This notice on behalf of the American Battle Monuments Commission constitutes market research for item level digitization and metadata capture of both modern and historical documents and blueprints. Records are required to be digitized and imbedded with associated metadata as part of the OMB/NARA Directive M-19-21: National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) Transition to Electronic Records Directive.

Most documents will be in a letter size format of 8”x10” or legal size of 11”x14”, however, there may be smaller index card size burial records that cannot be run through a feeder scanner. Large format maps and blueprints will also vary in size and require specialized digitization. Some materials may be fragile or need preservation prior to handling for digitization. Rips or tears may be found on oversized maps and blueprints.

This project includes the following requirements per NARA guidelines for digitization and metadata capture:

Textual Scan Resolution: 300 dpi File format: PDF/A-1 Maps and Blueprints Scan Resolution: 300 dpi File format: JPG Metadata capture The standards issued by NARA-s Metadata Guidance for the Transfer of Permanent Electronic Records, Bulletin 2015-04 shall be followed Bulletin 2015-04 | National ArchivesFile/Item-Level Metadata Elements

Agencies should provide the following elements for each file or item included in a transfer (Appendix A, Metadata Element Definitions describes the specific elements and provides examples of their appropriate use):
