This is a bidder response form from UW Medicine in Washington state seeking qualified vendors to provide a social care network and community resource management system. The form requires vendors to demonstrate minimum requirements including 3 years of experience implementing commercial off-the-shelf software solutions for community resource management in large academic medical institutions, successful implementation in at least 3 medical institutions, EHR integration capabilities (preferably with Epic), and functionality for maintaining a database of local resources, referral capabilities, and patient self-service portal access specifically for the Seattle and King County area.

The response form is organized into seven sections covering minimum requirements, vendor qualifications, functionality, application support and rollout, technical requirements, security specifications, and pricing. Vendors must detail their pricing model including one-time costs for implementation and training, recurring costs for licenses and hosting, and on-demand professional services rates. The form emphasizes technical requirements around hosting, integration, data security, audit logging, encryption, and disaster recovery capabilities. There are specific requirements that all data must be stored and processed within the United States and that the solution must support role-based access control and single sign-on authentication.
