Aufranc 2 About BMI BMI Imaging Systems was incorporated in 1958 with the primary business plan to film County records and is an acknowledged leader in the image conversion services marketplace. Since 1958 BMI has implemented hundreds of solutions throughout the United States and provides a full range of image and data management services and product solutions. We also design and implement custom high-performance image and data solutions and support installed systems through web, phone and on-site support. Building upon a track record of quality and dependability, we were able to expand our services to include preservation-related microfilming of some of California's leading newspapers, as well as some of the world's rarest books and manuscripts. This success spawned a reputation for service, precision, reliability and innovation. We have been scanning microfilm based records for nearly 20 years and have performed many successful projects in CA including the Fresno County Recorder along with the Fresno County Board of Supervisors. Our Digital ReeL technology is currently in use by over 35 Counties in California. BMI maintains two comprehensive production facilities located in Sunnyvale, CA and Sacramento, CA. Both production facilities are free-standing, alarmed, and equipped with automatic sprinkler systems throughout. The Sunnyvale Facility is equipped with an internal storage vault used for the safe-keeping and protection of client material and data. This area is constructed with concrete floor, walls and roof and is secured with a vault door to control access. This storage area is fully climate controlled and has internal fire-suppression equipment. This project will be performed at our Sunnyvale, CA facility. We currently employee approximately 60 team members. The Sunnyvale corporate headquarters facility is in the center of Silicon Valley @ 1115 E. Arques Avenue Sunnyvale, CA 94086 Phone: 408-736-7444 Our state-of-the-art Sacramento office is located close to downtown @ 749 West Stadium Lane Sacramento, CA 95834 Phone: 916-924-6666 Security/Insurance: BMI’s production facilities are protected by an electronic security system. Electronic identification fobs are required for all entrances. This system is monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Both of our production centers are protected by a heat activated sprinkler systems that notify the fire department when activated. Customer microfilm records that are not actively being processed are stored within a locked 7000 cubic foot walk-in vault with a two-hour fire rating. All customer film stored in our facility is covered by an Inland Marine valuable papers insurance policy with a limit of $2,000,000. Client film shipped from our facility is also covered by an Inland Marine policy to a limit of $200,000 per shipment. At the time of their hiring, all of our employees are given an employee handbook that is 3 based on a framework from the California Chamber of Commerce. This handbook details BMI’s employment policies and workplace regulations. As a requirement of employment, each employee is required to sign a non-disclosure agreement that prohibits discussion or distribution of information that originates with or belongs to a client of BMI. All production employees are HIPAA trained and many are DOJ certified to work on Law Enforcement and Confidential documents. BMI currently employs 60 staff members between our two facilities. Our client base includes approximately 3,000 governmental agencies and private industry interests. Confidentiality: BMI has security policy documents in place as we process a high volume of confidential material on a daily basis including HIPAA documentation. These security documents can be provided to the County management upon request prior to contract award. All scanning will take place at our Sunnyvale, CA facility which has recently been certified to be in compliance with the National Institute of Standards and Technology Special Publication (NIST SP) 800-53 guidelines. Below is additional information regarding our security and facility: 4 Project Goals BMI currently hosts historical land records for the Assessor-Recorder for the time period of 1979 – 1853. Listed below are the goals of this Digital ReeL system upgrade:  Achieve best standards compliance for microfilm creation of Official Records. Create archival quality standard rolls from previously recorded documents. The documents written to 16mm microfilm x 215’ @ 40x and will include un-redacted Official Records.  Provide a portal for County to upload newly recorded documents to keep current with archive and back up needs. The County will upload both redacted and un-redacted Official Records.  Acquire a copy of recorded images and indices from 1980 to current which will be added to the existing hosted site (redacted and un-redacted) estimated at 22,000,000 images.  Provide a complete disaster recovery system by replicating the entire history of the County in two geographically different data centers.  Provide back-up images for the current recording system.  Convert older on premise Vital Records system to hosted Digital ReeL version.  Replacing poor quality images in the current Digital ReeL systems from better quality microfilm rolls (rescanning of rolls). Work Plan BMI will be shipping an external HD (encrypted) that can be utilized to copy the Official Records from Tyler as described above along with the Digital ReeL Vital Records images and indices. This data will be processed and converted to the current version of Digital ReeL. BMI will provide a secure FTP for the submission of the backlog documents that need to written to microfilm. This will be a one time project. For more current recorded documents, BMI will provide a portal for daily submission of recorded images and data (MDA or Microfilm Digital Archive). The final result of these projects is the County will have access to the complete history of Fresno County land records in Digital ReeL format located in two geographically different data centers for disaster recovery purposes. Additionally, we will achieve best standards compliance by creating archival microfilm rolls for recorded images. Lastly, BMI will provide pick up and delivery services for the 400 rolls that need to re-scanned. Project Management: BMI believes that a process driven, repeatable and predictable program is one that yields expected results. The following describes our normal process for project startup and monitoring as the project progresses.  Project Kickoff Meetings and Workshops  The BMI Account Executive and BMI assigned Project Manager meet with the Counties Project Management Team (via phone, web conference, or in 5 person) to clarify the expectations of the project deliverable, reporting requirements and completion dates.  Project Status Measurement, Monitoring, Meetings, and Reporting  All material is entered into BMI’s production tracking system, JobTraQ. There is a project level status report that shows all the processes for that project and how all material is distributed across those processes. Each project is broken in milestones that will require communication between both parties (via phone, web conference, or in person) to approve milestone deliverables and resolve issues. Reports can be generated as agreed to by both parties during the Kickoff Meeting.  Project Productivity and Budget Measurement and Monitoring  A project schedule is determined during the Kickoff Meeting. Milestones are created and completed throughout the project in accordance with the project schedule. Project budgets are tracked with the completion of each milestone to provide a clear picture of funds available/used at a given time during the project.  Source and Deliverable Data Transmittals  Deliveries or shipments from BMI for original material and/or physical product deliverable will contain a Customer Copy and BMI Copy transmittal sheet that requires a client signature upon receipt. Electronic product deliverables will be followed up with an email requesting client approval and receipt.  Confirmation of Requirements and Specifications  The purpose of the Kickoff meeting is to confirm the project specifications and deliverable requirements. If during the course of the project the project specifications and deliverable requirements need to be changed, the project will be put on hold and written documentation will be generated and agreed to by both parties. BMI development and project management staff then put in place procedures through which all project work is directed. While some of these procedures are manual (prep and scanning) most image management and data merging processes are automated. (See example of BMI HUB screenshot indicating management process tracking. All processes are tracked and monitored. 6 7  Data Problem Resolution and Issues Management  Any problems or issues with a project are to be discussed with the BMI Project Manager and BMI Account Executive (as needed) to resolve the problems or issues. Written documentation will be sent from the party identifying the problem/issue to the other party. An action plan to resolve the problem/issue will be determined and agreed to in writing by both parties.  Change Control  During the Project Kickoff meeting, the scope of the project will be defined to reduce scope creep. If during the project a change is determined and agreed to by both parties, the project will be put on hold, any previous deliverables may be reworked to meet the new requirements, client approval will be requested, and upon client approval receipt the project will continue.  Customer Satisfaction Measurement and Monitoring  Milestone approval requests will be sent throughout the project requiring the client to verify they are satisfied with the milestone deliverable. At the completion of the project, a follow up is conducted to inquire on the satisfaction of the deliverable and experience. Proposed Timeline: Weeks 1 2 4 6 8 12 18 24 Tasks Acquire Images/Materials Inventory Prepare Materials Provide Milestone 1 Complete Project Transportation of Materials:  The County will designate a point of contact that will be responsible for communicating with BMI during the project.  The Counties point of contact will work with BMI to allow access of BMI personnel to the material for transport to the BMI document conversion facility.  BMI employs its own drivers and trucks to provide transport of documents to our facilities.  Upon arrival at BMI, each shipment is logged into the BMI job control and tracking system . This includes assignment of a Job Number and box labeling, affixing bar coded document control numbers to boxes for tracking and accountability. The Job Number and box numbers are used throughout the conversion process.  During production the microfilm will be stored in our secure vault following scanning. 8  BMI intends to utilize our off-shore partners for the following services described herein: Framing of images (these images are out of focus and cannot be read). This allows for efficient printing/saving of images as this eliminates the black border around the frame or copyboard.
