The purpose of this RFI is to identify qualified contractors who are able to meet VA s some or all of the requirements identified in the attached performance work statement (PWS) for substance use disorder project management oversight, patient care model, mobile medical application for a proof of concept. The initial base period requires a completed proof of concept model within nine months, with an additional option to extend the term of the contract if VA requires expansion of the model to additional sites. The Government is interested in a single solution, but may consider an acquisition strategy for a single or group of requirements. Specifically for the mobile medical application, VA requires a solution (outlined below) that is based on open source (i.e., no license fees, ever, with interim source-code drops and a final, fully documented package at the conclusion of the effort) that will enhance the exchange of patient information into the VA s electronic health record (EHR) system (VistA) and improve case management and care coordination for patients. Configure the digital application Maintain the application on a HIPPA compliant server Integrate the digital application with VistA/EHR Obtain necessary security certifications working with VA personnel Deploy the application across the demonstration sites Operate the support system for the digital application as an integral part of clinical operations The draft PWS is attached. In addition, it is requested that the vendor respond to the following questions: Provide a summary of your technical capabilities to meet the requirements detailed in the draft PWS.
