WHAT THEY WANT
(Summarized from the RFP)
The Oregon State Police, on behalf of the Oregon State Medical Examiner Division, is seeking a single forensic DNA laboratory to extract and analyze DNA from unidentified human remains and cold case samples. The work supports the state's Human Identification Program, which investigates the 175 unidentified skeletal remains documented in Oregon, most of them skeletonized, decomposed, fragmented or otherwise degraded. Many of these cases cannot be resolved with fingerprinting, dental coding, facial approximation or radiography, and need traditional forensic DNA testing to support identification.
