LabVantage Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS)

The Defense Health Agency is seeking to procure a comprehensive LabVantage Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) for its medical research facilities, specifically targeting sophisticated laboratory software solutions. The Request for Information (RFI) seeks detailed vendor capabilities for licensing 178 Concurrent Full User Licenses, 13 Named Full User Licenses, 108 Electronic Laboratory Notebook licenses, and 90 Scientific Data Management System data sources. Key software modules will include sample management, biobanking, laboratory execution systems, quality control, dashboard, and reagent tracking, with a specific focus on supporting FDA-regulated laboratory environments. Vendors are required to submit a five-page capability statement electronically by 12:00 pm Eastern on June 11, 2025, to Brandon Clingan via email. The RFI emphasizes that this is an information-gathering exercise and not a formal solicitation, requesting vendors to provide comprehensive company information, business classifications, and contact details.

The procurement is classified under NAICS code 334111 for Electronic Computer Manufacturing and will be based at Fort Detrick, Maryland. No specific set-aside designations are currently noted for this opportunity. While no incumbent contractor is mentioned in the documentation, the RFI seeks confirmation of product availability and vendor authorization to resell the specified software. The potential contract appears to be targeting a comprehensive software licensing and maintenance arrangement, with the agency seeking detailed insights into vendor capabilities and product specifications. The solicitation suggests a sophisticated technological procurement process focused on securing advanced laboratory management software tailored to the specific needs of Defense Health Agency research facilities, with potential significant investment in licensing and implementation of the selected LIMS solution.
