A 2013 "NIST handbook offers advice for law enforcement agencies on the planning, design, construction, and relocation of forensic science laboratories. A detailed how-to guide, the document not only outlines the process of creating a new crime lab from start to finish, but also provides guidance on integrating the latest scientific developments, efficiency improvements, and sustainability practices.
The handbook is intended for laboratory directors, architects, designers, builders, and others who have an interest in planning and constructing the 21st-century crime lab. The new Forensic Science Laboratories: Handbook for Facilities Planning, Design, Construction, and Relocation is available as a pdf file at

It is now 2016 and the "industry" has changed. Regardless of the "money is not an issue" clause, crimes have become more sophisticated (and nations are supporting them) and so have forensic labs. However, you must start somewhere.
