The Contractor shall provide all necessary management, supervision, labor, materials, and other resources required to implement a comprehensive program that fulfills the Government�s Records Operations requirements and deliverables and meets all performance requirements as set forth in the Performance Work Statement.

The Contractor will perform a wide range of pre-processing, non-inherently Governmental workloads to accomplish the NBC�s mission essential functions. The NBC program requires the contractor to manage required tasks in an integrated manner, with consistent and consolidated management reporting and oversight spanning the entire scope of services.
