- Description
- Synopsis:Provide an enterprise-wide Picture Archiving and Communications System (PACS) with RIS/HIS for the Veterans Integrated Service Network 20 (VISN 20) that will both replace our current cPACS as well as provide PACS capability in facilities that are currently only operating with VistARad. The contractor will provide all hardware, software, installation, training and ongoing full maintenance support. VISN20 seeks to implement a VISN-wide PACS that is integrated with a single datacenter located in Vancouver, WA. VISN 20 is comprised of multiple physical sites, comprising nine (9) main organizational entities. The care facilities are located at the following locations: 1.Portland, Oregon (includes Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, Washington) 2.Roseburg, Oregon 3.White City, Oregon 4.Vancouver, WA (Data Center) 5.Puget Sound (includes Seattle and American Lake, Washington) 6.Spokane, Washington 7.Walla Walla, Washington 8.Boise, Idaho 9.Anchorage, Alaska Each sites' RIS (Radiology Information System) is VistA (Veterans Information Systems & Technology Architecture). Four of the facilities also have an existing cPACS installed at their location - provided by a commercial PACS provider. VISN 20 seeks to implement a VISN-wide PACS, such that any image obtained at ANY VISN 20 site is easily accessible from any other VISN 20 site and such that a list of prior imaging exams for any given patient includes imaging exams performed at all VISN 20 facilities. We have formal working relationships with a number of private academic institutions and military bases: for instance, the Portland Veterans Administration Medical Center (VAMC) is a medical affiliated facility with Oregon Health Sciences University (OHSU). There are PACS to PACS MOU's in place to securely and directly (i.e. not on CD but through direct fiber and network connections) transfer data between the applications/organizations. We need to be able to continue these relationships. In addition to these affiliations, we have a need to send images to private sector Radiologists working in groups as contractors with the VA. Finally, some VA radiologists and clinicians may need access to the PACS images in their homes (via home telerad). This procurement is unrestricted. All bidders must be registered in CCR at http://www.ccr.gov to be eligible for award. NAICS 423450 applies-size standard is 100 Employees. The estimated dollar value of this procurement is $13,000,000. In order to receive e-mail notification of amendments, you must register in FedBizOpps to Receive Notification of amendments.
