About this award

The U.S. Marine Corps has awarded a $792,611.56 firm fixed-price purchase order to Othram Inc., a small disadvantaged business specializing in forensic genetic genealogy services. This total small business set-aside contract, effective through September 29, 2030, supports the Marine Corps' genealogical research efforts to locate family members of approximately 2,849 unaccounted-for service members from World War II, Korea, Vietnam, and the Cold War. Othram will provide certified genealogical services to identify and contact the closest living relatives of these missing personnel for the purpose of collecting Family Reference Samples to support the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency's identification operations.

Under this engagement, Othram will complete genealogical research cases at a minimum rate of 24 cases monthly, targeting 1,450 cases overall throughout the contract period. The work involves locating maternal, paternal, and nuclear family members, conducting sensitive family outreach, assembling and shipping DNA collection kits, and reporting findings within 7-10 days of request. Othram's existing federal contract portfolio, which includes a $1 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs and a $475,000 General Services Administration Federal Supply Schedule contract, demonstrates the company's established capabilities in forensic DNA testing, genome sequencing, and genealogical research services to federal agencies.
