About this opportunity

The Mississippi Forensics Laboratory (MSFL) is conducting a sole source procurement for 100 Bode Arrestee Buccal DNA Collector Kits, specifically designed for collecting DNA samples from convicted felons. Each kit contains a Bode Buccal DNA Collector, a Mississippi outer envelope, a transport pouch with desiccant, custom printed instructions, two pairs of vinyl gloves, and an integrity seal. The procurement is uniquely justified by the proprietary nature of the Bode Buccal DNA Collector, which is protected by patent #6840911 and exclusively manufactured and distributed by Bode Cellmark Forensics in the United States. The solicitation (Reference Number: 1711-26-R-RFIN-00006) was posted on November 6, 2025, with a response deadline of November 26, 2025, at 5:00 pm local time. Potential objectors must submit their concerns to Sonya Williams or Britney Wesley in the Procurement Department, with MSFL bearing the burden of proving the sole source justification.

The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types. Bode Cellmark Forensics is the sole vendor for this procurement, offering a bulk quote with a discounted rate compared to standard pricing. The total estimated procurement value is $41,300.00, which includes $40,300.00 for the 100 kits (priced at $403.00 per kit) and an additional $700-$1,000 for shipping and handling. No information is provided about incumbent vendors or existing technological infrastructure requirements. The sole source nature of the procurement suggests that Bode Cellmark Forensics is the exclusive provider of these specialized DNA collection kits for the Mississippi Forensics Laboratory.
