- DRAFT RFP FOR DMA CLOSED CAPTIONING SERVICE This acquisition is for a Labor Hour commercial contract to obtain remote service for closed captioning in support of Defense Media Activity and its affiliate stations worldwide located at Sembach, Germany; Riverside, CA; Tokyo, Japan; and Yongsan, Korea. The Defense Media Activity (DMA), established on October 1, 2008, is a consolidation of all media activities of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine, and American Forces Information Service (AFIS). The mission of the DMA is to provide a wide variety of information products to the entire DoD family (Active, Guard, and Reserve Military Service members, dependents, retirees, DOD civilians, and contract employees) and external audiences through all available media, including: motion and still imagery; print; radio; television; Web and related emerging Internet, mobile, and other communication technologies. The Defense Media Activity has the responsibility to ensure compliance with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, by providing disabled employees and members of the public access to information that is comparable to the access available to others. Adoption of FCC rules for TV closed captioning require accurate, synchronous, complete, and properly placed captions for pre-recorded, live, and near-live broadcasts. To meet this requirement, DMA requires service for closed captioning of live, streaming on-air media and off-line captioning files for pre-recorded audio-visual material. The contractor shall provide personnel, equipment, and software necessary to perform remote closed captioning services of live, streaming on-air media and off-line captioning files for pre-recorded audio-visual material. This procurement is a total small business set-aside. The applicable NAICS is 561492 with a size standard of $15 million.
