The FBI Federal Convicted Offender (FCO) Program is mandated to collect blood samples from individuals convicted of certain federal offenses. Upon receipt of the offender=s sample, the liquid blood is archived onto a stain card and stored until STR DNA analysis can be performed. Upon completion of the analysis, the offender's DNA profile is uploaded into the National DNA Index System (NDIS), which is part of CODIS. The Justice for All Act of 2004 expanded the offenses, for which the FCO Program receives a blood sample to include all Federal felons, and is receiving several thousand blood samples per month and can expect to receive over 50,000 samples over the next year. The FBI intends to award a Firm Fixed Price type contract for STR DNA Analysis in support of this program.
