This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The small size standard is for annual sales below $21,000,000.00 for North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code 541519. The U.S. Army intends to procure thirty-one (31) Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) software licenses for the Program Manager, Counterintelligence Human Intelligence Management System (CHIMS). Additionally, there will be a three-hundred percent (300%), two-y ear option. These items will support Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) initiatives. The SAKHR Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Software is a tool for the translation of optically scanned bitmaps of printed or written Arabic text characters into character codes, such as ASCII, to turn hard copy materials into data files that can be edited and otherwise manipulated on a computer. The Arabic language is very complex , as evident in the cursiveness of the text, character overlapping, various character shapes, diacritics and the variety of calligraphic Arabic fonts that exist, which present major technical challenges in the Arabic OCR industry.
