National Certificate Automation Redesign (NCAR) Printer Replacement
This is a market research request for printers to produce secure Naturalization Certificates under the NCAR program. The requirement is for a single, forensically consistent printer model using pigment-based ink to create a verifiable document signature. The potential procurement includes an initial deployment of 300 printers to over 100 USCIS locations, with options for a base purchase of 5-10 units for testing and ongoing purchases of up to 25 additional printers per year over a four-year period. The government is seeking information on company capabilities and experience with this type of equipment. No solicitation is currently issued, and responses are for planning purposes only, with no reimbursement for submitted information.
