“Description of Action: The proposed action is for a firm-fixed price (FFP) delivery order issued under a National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V Government-Wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) for brand name Laurel Bridge Professional Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Compass Router software and maintenance support, along with associated installation, configuration and deployment services.”
“Description of the Supplies or Services: The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Office of Electronic Health Record Modernization (OEHRM)has a requirement for brand name Laurel Bridge Compass Router software to be deployed at 54VA facilities throughout Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISN)s12, 15, 17, 19, 21, 22, 23and the Fixed Facility Government Approved Laboratory test center to interface and communicate with Cerner. On June 5, 2017, VA announced its decision to replace their current Electronic Health Record (EHR) system, Veterans Health Information System Technology Architecture (VistA), with Cerner, referred to as VA’s new EHR. The goal of this initiative is to leverage VA’s existing medical and laboratory devices to achieve interoperability with the new EHR. This proposed action supports these VISNs and the test center in their efforts to replace the legacy EHR, VistA, with the new electronic health record, Cerner. Due to clinical impact restraints, the existing Laurel Bridge Compass Router solution cannot be upgraded or configured to integrate with Cerner. Specifically, clinical analysis efforts revealed that a single Compass Router at each site running dual Vista Imaging and Cerner workflows feeds during the Cerner transition was too high a risk to patient care. Therefore, a mirror copy of the currently deployed Laurel Bridge Compass Router solution is required in order to facilitate the transition from the currently deployed VistA EHR to the new Cerner EHR…”
