Casework Submission

Casework Submission

Bode Technology is an active provider of large-scale forensic DNA identity testing services under contracts secured through a competitive bidding process.  Bode and its predecessor laboratories have supplied forensic casework analysis services, convicted offender and arrestee sample profiling, criminal paternity testing, mass disaster victim identification, and missing person identification under contract to many state and local governmental agencies and private organizations both in the US and abroad for many years.

If your agency is contemplating release of a solicitation for DNA–based identity testing services, the team at Bode  would genuinely appreciate the opportunity to submit a proposal and win your business.  We hold the national and state accreditations and certifications required to perform forensics services throughout the US.  Bode also offers competitively-priced custom packages of identity testing services to clients who prefer not to pursue the competitive bidding route.  Please feel free to contact one of our technical service team representatives using the information below if you would like to receive a proposal to a solicitation or if you would like to discuss other types of available testing arrangements and solutions.

Evidence should be packaged and shipped by someone professionally trained in evidence handling and chain of custody and sent for overnight delivery using a traceable courier (FedEx, UPS, etc) with a tracking number and signature required. This will help maintain proper chain of custody for the evidence. Make sure evidence will arrive at our lab from Monday through Friday only. Do not ship to a specific person as this may compromise the chain of custody. For hand deliveries, you must contact the technical services team to set up an appointment for the delivery.
