The Export‑Import Bank of the United States (EXIM) is issuing a small‑business, NAICS 513210 solicitation (RFQ 83310126Q0018) for a firm‑fixed‑price contract to provide an archive platform (ArchivEra from Lucidea) to replace the existing Texworks system and to migrate all data to the new platform. The contract will have a five‑year performance period consisting of a base year (04/01/2026‑03/31/2027) and four one‑year option periods (through 03/31/2031). Offerors must submit a two‑volume response: Volume I with a technical narrative (including migration approach) and Volume II with pricing, a completed SF‑1449, and a chart or spreadsheet showing option‑year totals, overall contract total, and any discount from the offeror’s standard commercial rates. Proposals must meet all technical requirements, be based on the data in the technical submittal, and demonstrate balanced option pricing; unbalanced option prices may render an offer unacceptable. The award will be made to the responsible offeror providing the best overall value (technical and price). All firms must be registered in SAM and submit electronic proposals to the contracting officer, Mark Jefferson (mark.jefferson@exim.gov), by the stated due date and time; no corrections are permitted after submission. This acquisition is justified as a limited‑source, brand‑name procurement, and future competition will be sought for subsequent requirements. Offerors are encouraged to quote their most advantageous pricing in the initial response, as award may be based on those initial quotes.
