Oregon State University intends to contract for the provision of laboratory information management system (LIMS) maintenance and support services from TraceFirst as a sole source because of the uniqueness (design, capability, nature) of the goods and the contractor being the single provider of the goods. The system must support HL7 messaging directly from the LIMS software (CoreOne for Labs) to USDA regulatory systems without middleware, enable batch messaging for high-throughput reporting, and be compatible with the customized configuration currently in use at the Oregon Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory (OVDL). An entity may appeal this determination in accordance with OSU Standard 03-010, Section 5.17 no later than the closing date indicated on the website. Please note: This is a Sole Source Notification.
