Institutional Biorepository Management Platform

The purpose of this RFP is to solicit Offers from qualified vendors for the provision and implementation of a commercially available, fully developed institutional biorepository management platform for The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (the “University”). The University is seeking an existing, production-ready solution and is NOT soliciting proposals for the custom design, development, or creation of a new platform. The University seeks a secure, scalable, and sustainable solution capable of supporting diverse biorepository workflows across campus while ensuring regulatory compliance, promoting interoperability with existing research systems, and supporting long-term institutional needs. The University’s objective is to identify a platform that provides a shared infrastructure for biorepository operations while maintaining the flexibility necessary to support the unique requirements of individual repositories and research programs. The desired solution should enhance operational efficiency, foster collaboration across research communities, and support both current and future biorepository management requirements.
