Secure Document Destruction
Chicago and Great Lakes, IL

The NARA Records Centers have an ongoing need for the destruction of stored paper and cardboard that is no longer viable for record keeping purposes. The Records Centers require a smooth, continual process of shipping and destruction in order to create space for the new annual accessions that it receives from various agencies. In order to facilitate the process, the Government desires to create a no-cost contract for the shipping, storage, and destruction of the stored records while receiving revenue for part of the recycled paper value per the high Pulp and Paper Week (PPW) for the area nearest the NARA facility/facilities for mixed paper.

The nature of the material to be destroyed comes in two basic varieties: 1) Government-witnessed material (that which must be destroyed in the presence of a Government official via a one-step process in order to insure maximum protection from disclosure); and 2) Contractor-witnessed material (requires a certified document verifying that the destruction of the material was witnessed by the Contractor's management staff). These classifications, as briefly noted above, require different procedures for shipping, storage, and destruction. It is imperative that the requisite safeguards are followed.
