PART A – Continuation of SF1449, Block 20.
A.1. Schedule of Supplies/Services
Background:
The mission of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is to uncover new knowledge that will lead to better health for everyone. The NIH accomplishes that mission by conducting research in its own laboratories; studying patients enrolled in formally approved research protocols conducted within the Clinical Center; supporting the research of non-Federal scientists in universities, medical schools, hospitals, and research institutions throughout the country and abroad; helping in the training of research investigators; and fostering communication of biomedical information.
As an organization, the NIH is a unique medical research entity. Management is intentionally decentralized across 24 Institutes and Centers, yet the individual organizations cooperate and collaborate in a useful and necessary partnership. This controlled decentralization is expected to continue as most feel it provides a fertile environment for individual research and supports the incredible scientific diversity represented at NIH.
The Warren Grant Magnuson Clinical Center, a 200-bed, federally funded, biomedical-research hospital, is located on the NIH campus in Bethesda, Maryland. The Clinical Center is the delivery setting for all NIH intramural clinical research protocols. The Clinical Center accounts for about half of all NIH-funded clinical research beds in the United States. Patients are admitted to the Clinical Center for the sole purpose of participating in clinical research protocols. Patients may be self referred or referred by their local physicians. The Clinical Center admits patients from all over the world for clinical trials and natural history studies, with all care provided free of charge.
The Clinical Center accommodates about 7,000 inpatient admissions and 70,000 outpatient visits a year. The new Clinical Research Center (CRC) was completed in September 2004, which includes all new inpatient and day hospital units.
A.1.3 Scope and Objectives
The National Institutes of Health Clinical Center’s requirement is for an Offeror to provide the following:
Ongoing maintenance and support services The vendor shall provide maintenance and support for the following software modules in use or currently under implementation at the Clinical Center as well as any modules purchased and installed through the life of this contract.
SoftPathDX
SoftPathDx provides reliable data capture as well as a highly customizable and client configurable reporting and workflow structure for both anatomic pathology and cytology. A diverse imaging and reporting system allows a personalized setup. SoftPathDx also enables users to share specimens between other labs such as biochemistry, flow cytometry, cytogenetics, and molecular. This allows for integrated resulting and the ability to track specimens throughout multiple labs. SoftPathDx also enables users to optimize workflow by focusing on site-specific protocols and rules to assist the technologists and pathologists in decreasing turnaround times and managing patient data.
SoftBank
SoftBank is a Blood bank and transfusion service management system combines current high-performance functionality with exciting new features to provide a comprehensive, cost-effective pre-transfusion testing and inventory management solution.
SoftLAB
SoftLab computerizes and manages all data processing and laboratory activities, from order entry and result reporting to interfacing with laboratory instruments. The fully integrated SoftLab system provides a seamless interface that links all clinical laboratory departments throughout the enterprise.
SoftMic
When managing microbiology specimens requires a high-tech solution, SCC’s SoftMic is the answer. If you’re seeking a paperless environment, you’ve got it! SoftMic automates the processing of specimens through all stages, from order entry and workup to final reporting – offering a high-tech paperless solution with on-demand work cards, result entry, and flexible reporting capabilities that can substantially improve testing accuracy and report uniformity.
With its seamless operation and automated batch resulting, SoftMic can customize workflow in any environment, increase productivity, improve efficiency, and minimize errors providing real-time patient results and point-of-care quality.
When SoftMic is integrated with SoftLab™ and other SCC information systems, common data flows effortlessly throughout the system, increasing productivity and minimizing systems operating costs.
SoftTotalQC
SoftTotalQC is a multisite capable product developed to facilitate and analyze quality control in the clinical laboratory setting. Quality control activities can be defined and documented on controls, reagents, media, panels, drugs, consumables, and maintenance procedures on equipment. Along with quality control, SoftTotalQC provides an inventory control solution allowing each department and site to maintain their supply of controls, reagents, media, panels, drugs, and consumables.
SoftTotalQC is fully integrated with SoftLab®, SoftMic®, SoftBiochemistry®, SoftFlowCytometry®, SoftMolecular®, SoftCytogenetics®, and SoftHLA®, enabling users to perform QC checks before patient results are posted or entered. This allows QC results to be posted from instruments or be manually entered within patient resulting workflow and provides an automatic inventory countdown for related QC items. SoftTotalQC can be used in all other departments of the laboratory as a standalone product.
SoftTotalQC, assuring quality through total quality control management.
SoftReports
SoftReports provides enhanced report capabilities allowing users to incorporate color, a variety of report fonts, images, graphs, and charts. This add-on report engine can be integrated with SCC’s product suites enabling users to create new report layouts and modify existing layouts.
SoftReports offers a wide range of formatting options including PDF, HTML,XLS, and RTF.
SoftWebPlus
SoftWebPlus, SCC Soft Computer’s computerized physician/provider order entry/result query solution, is the enterprise healthcare Web solution designed to give the physician and other responsible medical staff real-time access to clinical results, effective tools for outreach management, and fast and user-friendly order entry and patient registration.
SoftMedia
SoftMedia provides users a pragmatic method for enhancing clinical services with document and image storage capabilities. SoftMedia gives clinical personnel the ability to attach stored documents or images to specific orders and other patient records.
SoftMedia enables users to attach digital images to reports, which optimizes communication and improves the quality of services provided by supplementing images with online annotation.
Features include multi-system document sharing, so documents and images stored in one system can be made available to users in other systems. This flexible software application works seamlessly as a standalone product or in conjunction with any of SCC’s information systems modules.
SoftID
SoftID provides positive patient and specimen identification at the point of care. This effective lab software solution enhances patient safety by accurately identifying the patient and the appropriate lab test and ensuring that patient lab specimens are correctly bar coded and labeled.
SoftID improves laboratory efficiency by automating the documentation of specimen collection data. When the collection is complete, SoftID will transmit data back to the LIS for real-time updates.
SoftID.Tx
SoftID.Tx, the positive patient identification system from SCC Soft Computer, is a comprehensive system used to manage the transfer of transfusion-related data from the patient’s bedside to SCC’s SoftBank system. SoftID.Tx enables users to collect transfusion-related data, assign a blood product to a courier, and verify that the product selected for transfusion is the same product assigned to the patient in SoftBank
SoftFlowCytometry
SoftFlowCytometry enables pathologists and medical technologists to effectively analyze multiple parameters from flow cytometric analysis software, including imported histograms and scatter plot images and data from custom panels derived from flow cytometry analysis techniques. The net result is better design configurations in testing workflows, task management, and result reporting. SoftFlowCytometry can be readily interfaced with virtually any flow cytometry instrument or data analysis platform for capture of large volume information analysis and management. Interfacing supports an efficient laboratory workflow avoiding manual entry that increases risk for data entry error. Efficiency and accuracy gains offered by SoftFlowCytometry will ensure that your laboratory can grow rapidly without requiring additional personnel or negatively impacting quality.
