The FBI Laboratory Division (LD), DNA Casework Unit (DCU), has a requirement for specialized services from a certified TubeWriter technician.�DCU requires a service contract to maintain the unit�s TubeWriter 360 Barcoding Platform Systems in support of DNA Casework. California Advanced Labeling is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and is the only provider of factory-supported, factory-trained, factory-authorized, and factory-certified services for the TubeWriter 360 systems.�Per the OEM, California Advanced Labeling is the only provider of services as they are the sole manufacturers based on the overall footprint, purchase, operational cost, and proprietary software.�As such, California Advanced Labeling is the sole and exclusive service provider for TubeWriter systems, and service contracts can only be purchased through them as there are no authorized resellers to include third-party service agreement resellers. In conclusion, based on market research conducted and contacts made with the OEM, and knowledgeable individuals within the government and related industry, it has been determined the FBI's requirement can only be provided by California Advanced Labeling Inc., as no other vendor is authorized to so sell or service the OEM�s TubeWriter systems.
