- NA 1.0 INTRODUCTION. The Defense Contracting Command Washington, on the behalf of the TRICARE Management Activity (TMA), in concert with the Acquisition Management Division (AMD) intends to acquire Information Support Services for the recompete of the Defen se System Intergration, Design, Development, Operation and Maintenance Support (D/SIDDOMS). In order to accomplish this effort the following types of services, equipment, materials, and facilities will be required to design, develop, procure, integrate, test, train, deploy, operate, and maintain Military Health System (MHS) systems and system components and similar programs for other federal agencies with a health care mission. This contract includes services necessary for the contractor to manage its ow n staff, resources, products, and schedules in performing work, but specifically excludes any services to support the MHS in planning or managing MHS programs or offices. 1.1. EXTERNAL FEDERAL AGENCY USAGE. In addition to the mission of the TRICARE Management Activity, this contract may be used to acquire services within the scope of the statement of work for other DOD and non-DOD agencies with a health care mission at t he discretion of the Acquisition Management Division (AMD) and the Defense Contracting Command ? Washington (DCC-W). 1.2. BACKGROUND. The TRICARE Management Activity (TMA) is responsible for the operation of TRICARE as the worldwide, integrated system for accessible, high quality and cost effective delivery of health care services to Department of Defense (DoD) benefic iaries during peacetime and wartime. The MHS provides medical support for the full range of military deployments and peacetime support to members of the Armed Forces, their families, and others to advance our national security interests. The mission of th e MHS is to provide and to maintain readiness, and to provide healthcare services and support to members of the Armed Forces during military operations. The Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs)/TRICARE Management Activity (OASD (HA)/TMA) has a requirement to provide support to the MHS in applying the principles of DoD information and technology management by developing and implemen ting policies, procedures, programs, and technical standards necessary to acquire, manage, integrate, and secure information technology systems and capabilities that support the delivery of high quality, cost effective health care services across the opera tional continuum. The TMA/DCC-W D/SIDDOMS III contract will be a tool used to support TMA in the execution of its vast mission. The MHS provides comprehensive healthcare for all Armed Forces personnel, their families, and other individuals eligible for care. The MHS Information Management/Information Technology (IM/IT) Program supports the MHS by closely aligning its priorities an d processes with the MHS mission, vision, goals, and strategies. The MHS IM/IT Program continues to evolve through the development of capabilities in the following six functionally integrated programs: The Clinical Information Technology Program Office (CITPO), The Defense Medical Logistics System Support (DMLSS) Program Office, The Resources Information Technology Program Office (RITPO), The Executive Information/Decision Support (EI/DS) Program Office, The Theater Medical Information Program Office (TMIP), and The Technology Infrastructure Management Program Office (TIMPO). It is through these areas that the MHS IM/IT Program will fully integrate its information systems to support the MHS goals and strategies in support of readiness, TRICARE, and preventive healthcare initiatives. It continues to move toward its goal of cons olidating over 100 legacy systems into a single migration system to support each of these functional areas. The integrated program structure ensures full integration of the MHS into the defense information infrastructure and full compliance with the te chnical standards of the common operating environment. The MHS IM/IT Program has made substantial progress in its delivery of real-time information through the adaptation of emerging technologies and reengineering initiatives. 2.0 CONFLICT OF INTEREST.
