OTHRAM INC

Othram Inc. specializes in advanced forensic genetic analysis and laboratory services, leveraging next-generation sequencing technologies to support criminal investigations, missing persons cases, and unidentified human remains identification. Their core expertise lies in single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based genetic sequencing, familial relationship testing using buccal swabs, and genome-wide analysis of forensic DNA evidence to enable investigative genetic genealogy. They apply cutting-edge bioinformatics and molecular biology techniques to extract actionable intelligence from degraded or low-template DNA samples, distinguishing themselves through high-sensitivity, high-throughput forensic genomics solutions tailored for law enforcement and federal agencies. Their work bridges the gap between clinical laboratory standards and forensic casework, ensuring defensible, court-admissible results under rigorous chain-of-custody protocols. Othram consistently delivers services to the Department of Defense, the Department of Justice, and the Department of the Interior, providing forensic genetic testing for military personnel identification, cold case investigations, and tribal missing persons initiatives. They also support the General Services Administration through a Federal Supply Schedule contract, indicating established procurement reliability. Their engagements reflect a pattern of responding to high-stakes, time-sensitive forensic challenges requiring scientific rigor and operational discretion. The contractor’s primary focus is on Testing Laboratories and Services (NAICS 541380), with secondary work in Medical Laboratories (NAICS 621511) and Life Sciences R&D (NAICS 541715). This positions them as a niche provider at the intersection of forensic science, public safety, and biomedical innovation, serving government entities that require genetically derived intelligence beyond traditional STR profiling. Othram Inc. is a small business based in Spring, Texas, operating under a 2L entity structure. While no federal certifications are listed, their consistent award history with defense, justice, and interior agencies demonstrates credible, mission-critical capabilities in forensic genomics without reliance on formal set-aside designations.
