This time and materials contract, awarded without a set-aside designation, reflects the government's continued reliance on Signature Science's forensic science expertise to support federal litigation efforts. Signature Science LLC, a for-profit limited liability company headquartered in Austin, Texas, and a subsidiary of the nonprofit Southwest Research Institute, specializes in advanced scientific and technical services including forensic science, genomic technology, and chemical and biological threat assessment.
