About this opportunity
The Mississippi Forensics Laboratory (MSFL) is conducting a sole source procurement for Bode Buccal DNA Arrestee Collection Kits to support forensic evidence collection processes. The agency seeks to purchase 100 specialized DNA collection kits designed specifically for collecting samples from convicted felons. Each kit contains a Bode Buccal DNA Collector, custom Mississippi Outer Envelope, Transport Pouch with Desiccant, collection instructions, gloves, matching barcodes, and an integrity seal. The procurement is uniquely structured as a sole source acquisition, with Bode Cellmark Forensics identified as the exclusive vendor due to their proprietary technology (patent #6840911). The solicitation is posted with a response deadline of February 18, 2025, at 5:00 pm local time, during which potential vendors may submit objections to the sole source designation. The kits are manufactured under current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) conditions in an FDA registered facility, meeting specific forensic evidence collection standards.
The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or small businesses. Bode Cellmark Forensics is positioned as the sole manufacturer and vendor for these specialized DNA collection kits, with no indication of alternative suppliers or competitive bidding. The total estimated procurement value is $38,502.00 for the 100 kits, with additional shipping and handling costs ranging between $700-$1,000, bringing the total potential contract value to approximately $39,502.00. The per-unit cost is calculated at $385.02, which MSFL argues represents a bulk pricing discount below standard unit pricing. The procurement is specifically targeted at supporting the Mississippi Forensics Laboratory's evidence collection capabilities, with a focus on acquiring a highly specialized, technologically unique product for forensic DNA sample collection from arrestees.
