RFQ: Currency Reader Information Management System (CRIMS) Support, Enhancements, and Upgrades 030ADV26Q0024
Summary
AI-generated · Nov 29, 2025Support and enhancements for the Currency Reader Information Management System (CRIMS): implement a secure Azure-based web user interface and related tools to boost electronic patron engagement and strengthen patron record security, while increasing application throughput. Maintain CRIMS and support recent legacy upgrades that use commercial off-the-shelf software, and continue migrating paper-based workflows from the application process to a fully web-based, electronic workflow. Improve overall system security within a Microsoft Azure environment and support the government-wide push to reduce hard-copy paper.
Key objectives include delivering a new CRIMS user interface to reduce reliance on custom legacy modules, further moving applications away from paper-based submissions (e.g., by eliminating US Mail submissions), maintaining digital signature capability as a substitute for wet signatures, delivering faster, end-to-end electronic order processing, reducing the use of paper forms to generate patron records, decreasing errors from hand-written forms, and ensuring compliance with LOC information security regulations, policies, and best practices.
This competitive effort is being sought under FAR Part 13. A copy of the Request for Quote and its assocated attachments are attached. Please refer to these documents for additional informaiton. Objective: The LOC seeks contractor (CTR) support to increase electronic patron engagement and patron record security by implementing a secure Azure web-based user interface, as well as associated tools and functionality, to enhance application throughput for the Program. The LOC envisions leveraging CTR support to Maintain CRIMS. Support recent legacy upgrades that use COTS software. Continue devolving paper-based workflows from the application process. Continue migrating system user operations to a fully web-based electronic workflow to maximize efficiencies. Improve system security using a more robust Microsoft (MS) Azure-based environment. Comply with a government-wide initiative to reduce hard-copy paper in the workplace. The intent of this requirement is to achieve several key objectives: Supporting a new CRIMS user interface (UI) to reduce reliance on custom coded legacy operations modules in the CRIMS system. Further reducing reliance on the current, paper-based workflow that involves patrons submitting their applications via US Mail. Maintaining digital signature capability as a surrogate to the current wet signature model. Enhancing the patron customer experience through faster and easier order processing using an end-to-end electronic workflow. Reducing reliance on paper forms used to generate patron records in accordance with (IAW) government direction and policy to limit the use of paper forms wherever possible. Reducing error rate/guesswork on the part of Library staff processing hand-written paper forms. Adhering to all applicable LOC information security regulations, policies, and best practices.
