Laboratory Reaccreditation Services

The FBI Laboratory is seeking assessment and reaccreditation services for three forensic laboratory facilities located in Quantico, VA, Huntsville, AL, and Norcross, GA through this Request for Information issued by the Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Investigation Headquarters Division. The procurement targets accrediting bodies capable of conducting comprehensive evaluations of forensic laboratory operations to maintain compliance with established standards. Key requirements include international recognition by IAAC and ILAC, approval from the NDIS Procedures Board, substantial experience with forensic laboratory assessments, and technical evaluation capabilities aligned with ISO/IEC 17025 and ANSI National Accreditation Board standards. Interested contractors must demonstrate their technical abilities, personnel qualifications, and provide company details including UEI number, NAICS code, business size, and GSA Schedule information. The submission deadline is 5:00 PM EST on September 3, 2025, with responses to be sent via email to Adelle Bolton at albolton@fbi.gov.

This opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designations and is open to all qualified vendors meeting the specified accreditation requirements. No incumbent contractors or current service providers are identified in the RFI documentation, nor are specific contract values or budget ranges disclosed at this pre-solicitation stage. The scope encompasses three distinct laboratory facilities across multiple states, indicating a multi-location service requirement that will likely involve coordinated assessment activities. The FBI emphasizes this is strictly a market research effort with no commitment to issue contracts or provide compensation to respondents for their submissions. The 20-day response window from posting to deadline suggests the agency is seeking prompt market feedback to inform their procurement strategy for these critical laboratory accreditation services.
