GAITHERSBURG, MD—Dec. 12, 2006—Paradigm Solutions International, Inc. (PSI) is pleased to announce that its OpsPlannerTM federal reseller, Paradigm Solutions Corporation (PSC), has been awarded a contract by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) to implement a crisis/incident management system.  As part of the contract, which was awarded on September 15, 2006, NARA will purchase and utilize PSI’s web-based Continuity of Operations Planning (COOP) software tool, OpsPlanner.  This solution will enhance NARA's ability to automate and streamline the contingency plan development and crisis/incident management process.  OpsPlanner includes full auditing capability, which facilitates post-event review and analysis.

The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is an independent federal agency that preserves and shares with the public records that trace the story of our nation, government, and the American people.  NARA became an independent federal agency in 1985 to ensure ready access to essential evidence for citizens, public servants, the President, the Congress and the Courts.  Of all documents and materials created in the course of business conducted by the United States federal government, only one to three percent are so important for legal or historical reasons that they are kept by NARA forever.  Through NARA, people can inspect for themselves the record of what government has done and it enables officials and agencies to review their actions and help citizens hold them accountable.
