Big Contract Possible

From a "Sources Sought" notice posted by Social Security:

The Social Security Administration (SSA) is conducting Market Research to determine if there are any sources that can provide alternative means by which printed notices can be provided to the public. SSA currently generates the vast majority of its printed notices in IBM's Advanced Function Presentation (AFP) in mixed mode and AFPDS in 12 point font, and a small portion in Microsoft Word and Adobe PDF formats.

SSA is seeking sources capable of converting its notices to Braille and/or Microsoft Word on a Data CD and mailing those notices to recipients within 5 business days (excluding government holidays) of receipt of the notice (files) from SSA. SSA anticipates the notices (files) will be provided daily, Monday through Friday, year round.
