AI summary

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment requires information on a laboratory information management system (LIMS) for its Newborn Screening Program. The requested software must perform offsite work to integrate with laboratory instruments, track testing, link patient demographics, provide reporting, and track patients to diagnosis. Only onshore USA organizations are eligible to submit responses. Interested parties must submit questions by October 9, 2026, and final responses by November 2, 2026. Respondents can submit information digitally via email or online, including a vendor information form, a description of the system's ability to meet detailed requirements, and voluntary budget templates or price estimates. As this non-binding Request for Information serves solely for market research, the department will not issue an award, select candidates based on proposal evaluations, provide a contract term, or set a budget.
