27-08:Digital Scanning Services

Solicitation # 27-08

The Bossier Parish School Board (BPSB) in Louisiana is soliciting proposals under RFP 27-08 for a comprehensive, end-to-end digital scanning and conversion solution. The objective is to establish a scalable and repeatable approach for converting various record types and formats across multiple district departments into a digital format.

The contract will be awarded to the vendor that best meets the district's needs based on a scoring process, with the highest-scoring proposal presented to the BPSB School Board for final award. Vendors must certify compliance with FERPA and HIPAA security and confidentiality standards and provide a detailed integration and timeline plan. While no specific budget or quantity of records has been established, vendors are required to describe their recommended approaches for OCR accuracy, indexing, and cybersecurity. Proposals must be submitted by October 27, 2026, via Bid Express or through physical delivery to the Central Office in Benton, Louisiana, including a signed original, three copies, and an electronic version on a jump drive.
