DNA Analysis Attachment A (2).docx

This is a Cost Proposal Form attachment for a DNA Analysis Services solicitation issued by the Kentucky Justice Cabinet and Kentucky State Police under Solicitation Number RFP-520-2600000168. The document establishes the pricing framework for forensic DNA analysis services that qualified laboratories may provide. Bidders are not required to offer all services listed, allowing laboratories to submit proposals for their specific service capabilities. The services encompassed within the scope include serological analysis for blood, semen, and saliva; Y-screening analysis; standard DNA analysis; Y-chromosome short tandem repeat (Y-STR) analysis; mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) analysis; and forensic genetic genealogical services including phenotyping, database uploads, and searching capabilities for both basic and subsequent searches, as well as data mining and modeling for unknown profiles.

Bidders must provide line-item pricing for each applicable DNA analysis service they are capable of performing. The Cost Proposal Form requires laboratories to list the price per test for each service offering, enabling the state to evaluate costs across the various DNA analysis methodologies and specialized services. This pricing structure allows the Kentucky Justice Cabinet and Kentucky State Police to assess laboratory capabilities and costs for forensic DNA analysis services needed to support criminal investigations and forensic casework throughout the state.
