Description
The United States Air Force (USAF) Force Protection Battlelab (FPB) is currently investigating commercial/government off-the-shelf (COTS/GOTS) technologies that can lead to the integration of a hand held wireless device capable of interfacing among multiple systems to include the Composite Health Care System (CHCS). The proposed solution must be able to integrate with current deployable systems employed by military medical organizations and be able to be approved by the appropriate communication systems agencies. The operational setting may either be medical treatment facilities with wireless capability and/or a field environment with an approved wireless capability. Specifically, the FPB is investigating Tablet PCs/Personal Data Assistants (PDA) to be utilized at the point of care, thus providing a virtual care environment. This virtual care environment will consolidate multiple systems (CHCS terminal, personal PC, radiology viewer) into a single wireless platform. It should also manage the pharmaceutical Pyxis medication dispensing system using barcodes and wireless connections. Additionally, the system should be able to confirm patient identification for phlebotomy, transfusion, and medication management using wireless wristband readers. Finally, it should implement direct wireless applications for deployable patient identification, management, and movement while in the field environment. Through this BAA, the Air Force is requesting information concerning emerging and mature technologies, which meet the requirements previously stated, to be used in a Battlelab concept demonstration. The primary selection criteria for all submissions will be the most practical system available to support the requirements. All offerors are strongly encouraged to submit information supporting this request. Currently, there is only limited Battlelab funding identified for this program, however, if research indicates that the technology is available and transferable to the USAF, funding may be sought for prototype demonstration and recommended to Headquarters, Air Combat Command. NOTICE TO FOREIGN OFFERORS: Foreign or foreign-owned offerors are advised that their participation is subject to foreign disclosure review procedures and restrictions that could preclude their participation in this announcement. SUBMISSIONS: Product Information may be submitted until COB EST 27 May 2004. White papers should not exceed five pages plus cover letter. Electronic responses shall be submitted in MS Word format or Adobe PDF file. Refer technical questions and submit product information to Mr. Edward Lillion of Concurrent Technologies Corporation via email at lillione@ctcnsc.org or by mail to 100 CTC Drive, Johnstown, PA 15904-1935. The single point of contact concerning this Sources Sought Notice is Mr. Lillion. You may contact Mr. Lillion with any questions you may have at (814) 269-6516. Electronic submittals are strongly encouraged. GENERAL BAA INFORMATION: This notice itself constitutes the BAA as per FAR 6.102(d) (2). There shall be no formal RFP. The Air Force reserves the right to select for award, any, part of, all, or none of the proposals received. The Air Force may or may not purchase any of the technology demonstrated. This BAA is an expression of interest only and does not obligate the Air Force to pay any proposal preparation and prototype costs or to award any contracts, grants, cooperative agreements, or other transactions. Offerors are advised that only Air Force Contracting Officers are legally authorized to commit the Government to the obligation of funds.
