The Library of Congress (Library) National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled (NLS) requires a contractor to host and retain the Production Information and Control System (PICS-1) and NLS Integrated Operations Support System (NIOSS) web based data system in a read-only state for a period of two years for the purpose of record retention. The PICS/NIOSS production system is being decommissioned and replaced by a new contract for a new PIC system. The existing system will no longer be in use and will no longer be maintained. Instead, the database will be temporarily placed in a read-only state for the purpose of record retention before being permanently taken offline. Federal records retention policy requires the information held within the PICS database be easily accessible for a period of time in the event of an audit or other such request. This is pre-solicitation notice with the intent to award a sole source contract to BAE Systems Technology.
