Specific/Specialized Laboratory Requirements: Firearm and Toolmarks Lab: The firearms and toolmarks section conducts a full range of forensic examinations on physical evidence/material for firearms, toolmarks, and ammunition analysis in support of criminal investigations and military operations. Forensic Chemistry Lab: Forensic chemistry provides chemical and analytical testing for the exploitation of explosives, drugs, and related material. Latent Print Lab: The latent print lab processes and responsibilities include: Development, collection and preservation of latent prints from cases received from labs in theater to include IEDs and related components; Processing of porous, non-porous, and adhesives, using physical and chemical techniques; High resolution digital imaging. DNA Lab: FXD DNA provides scientific associations and links between people, places, events and materials, thus taking away the anonymity of the transnational terrorist and or criminal. OCS-OQIT: In accordance with the Defense Forensic Science Center (DFSC) mission to provide specialized forensic research capabilities and to provide forensic support to other Federal departments and agencies when appropriate, the DFSC Office of the Chief Scientist (OCS) manages and conducts research, development, testing and evaluation (RDT&E) efforts related to forensics in order to meet current and future warfighter and law enforcement requirements. Evidence Vault: This is a controlled access room that shall be used for the storage of the physical evidence/captured material received. The construction of this room shall meet minimum requirements IAW AR 195-5 4-2b. 2. Electronic Exploitation: The Electronic Exploitation technician room shall be used to perform electrical/electronic exploitation on systems and components related to IEDs, and post blast debris. Triage Lab: The triage technician area is used to mitigate any identified hazards on evidence/material coming into the laboratory for exploitation. Additional Non-Specialized parts of the laboratory include classrooms, administrative areas, break areas, housekeeping areas, facilities management areas, storage, fabrication shop, logistics storage, and evidence receiving, processing, and storage areas. Disclosure of Magnitude: Between $25,000,000 and $100,000,000 Sources sought responses require the following: Submit a capability statement (does not need to be complex) which includes projects at least 60% complete (can be completed within the previous 10 years) with a magnitude of $25-$100M where you have acted as the Prime Contractor: a.
