Submission Instructions
Description
The Library of Congress requires urgent commercial services for web harvesting to systematically capture content from the web based on staff instructions. This includes providing temporary access to harvested content and crawl reports for quality review, and enabling the transfer of this content to the Library for preservation and public access. The contract is critical for the period leading up to and including the 2026 U.S. Elections, as campaign websites and other time-sensitive digital information are at risk of disappearing. The incumbent contractor, MirrorWeb, is the only entity capable of meeting the urgent start date of July 1, 2026, due to their established infrastructure and cleared protocols. The estimated value is based on the TB size and price per terabyte from previous contracts, with a planned 325 TB of data to be harvested, including specific crawls for the U.S. Elections. This acquisition is being conducted as a sole source procurement due to an ongoing protest related to a previous award, which has caused a stop-work order and interrupted the web harvesting program. The Library has determined that MirrorWeb is the only responsible source that can meet the immediate needs and urgent timeline, ensuring the continued documentation of critical digital content. Future contracts for these services will be established through full and open competition.
