About this opportunity

The Mississippi Forensic Laboratory (MSFL) is conducting a sole source procurement for Life Technologies Kits, Reagents, Capillaries, and related consumables specifically designed for DNA human identification purposes. The procurement encompasses 19 distinct items, including Hi-Di Formamide Bottles, Spectral Dye Calibration Kits, Polymer Series Components, Capillary Arrays, Genetic Analyzers, and specialized testing kits. The procurement targets validated Life Technologies 3130, 3500, and 3500xl Genetic Analyzers, with a total estimated cost of $462,343.79. The solicitation (ID: 1711-26-R-RFIN-00012) was posted on July 31, 2025, with a response deadline of August 19, 2025, at 5:00 pm local time. Potential vendors are required to provide detailed documentation demonstrating their ability to meet the precise specifications of these forensic laboratory consumables, with Life Technologies being identified as the exclusive manufacturer and distributor of these specific items.

The procurement appears to be a direct sole source acquisition with no explicit set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types. Thermo Fisher Scientific is positioned as the primary vendor, with MSFL having negotiated a discounted pricing structure. Interested parties who believe they can provide comparable products are invited to submit a detailed written objection to the Procurement Department, including contact information, specific objections, and alternative source documentation. If no alternative sources are identified, MSFL will seek validation from the Public Procurement Review Board to confirm the sole source procurement. The procurement process allows for potential challenge and review, ensuring transparency and opportunity for competitive alternatives while recognizing the specialized nature of forensic laboratory equipment and consumables.
