The Wisconsin Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory (WVDL) provides testing services for regulatory monitoring and surveillance and diagnostic testing and evaluation for the State's practicing veterinarians. As a step towards maintaining accreditation of the WVDL by the American Association of Veterinary Laboratory Diagnosticians (AAVLD), Strang was commissioned to complete a facility program and site evaluation. The study's objective was to identify a facility for WVDL to meet its mission: "To provide leadership and excellence in diagnostic, consultative, and investigative services, education, and research; to promote the quality and economic viability of Wisconsin agriculture; and to safeguard animal and public health." Several facility options at three sites are being considered.

Each option includes similar facility components, such as extensive diagnostic laboratory spaces, administrative offices, necropsy, conferencing spaces, and laboratory support.
