About this file
This is a Sources Sought Excel template for large-volume infusion pumps required by Madison Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) in Madison, Wisconsin. Potential manufacturers must demonstrate how their infusion pump systems meet 16 salient characteristics specified by the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration, Veterans Integrated Service Network 12.
The infusion pump system must be a 2:8 large-volume pump capable of continuous or intermittent fluid, medication, blood, and blood product delivery. The system must support attachment of up to four independent large-volume infusion modules to a single host unit for simultaneous multi-channel infusions, reducing medication errors and clinical safety hazards. Required capabilities include customizable care-area profiles and drug libraries with dosing limits; modular design supporting large-volume pump, syringe pump, PCA, epidural infuser, and ETCo2 monitoring modules; smart pump technology with real-time alerts and data logging; wireless connectivity to hospital networks and integration with ORACLE HEALTH EMRs; high-precision flow rate and volume delivery; comprehensive visual and audible alarms; extended battery life; compatibility with standard mounting infrastructure; advanced programming options including continuous, intermittent, and PCA modes; anti-free-flow and occlusion detection; and included service computer software for preventive and corrective maintenance, testing, calibration, and pressure/volume monitoring. The template requires manufacturers to identify their company name and provide detailed explanations of how their product meets each salient characteristic.

Sheet1
| Manufacturer: [Enter Manufancturer's Name] | Does it meet Salient Characteristics? Yes or No | In detail, please identify how the Manufacturer meets the Salient Characteristics: | |
| 1. | Must Be a 2:8large volume infusion pump that must continuously or intermittently deliver fluids, medications, blood and blood products to patients. | ||
| 2. | The infusion system must support attachments of up to four independent large-volume infusion modules on a single host unit, allowing four separate infusions to be delivered simultaneously. This multi-channel capacity is required to enhance patient safety by reducing the need for multiple infusion pumps, decreasing risk of line-tracing errors, and minimizing trip hazards. The system must provide a smaller, consolidated bedside footprint to eliminate the need for multiple IV poles, supporting safer workflows in crowded clinical environments. | ||
| 3. | Must be able to create customizable care-area profiles and drug libraries with dosing limits and safety alerts to prevent medication errors. | ||
| 4. | Must be of modular design to allow for the integration of multiple modules, including large volume pump (LVP), syringe pump, patient-controlled analgesia (PCA), epidural infuser and ETCo2 monitoring module, operating through a single point of care. | ||
| 5. | Must provide smart pump technology for detecting and preventing medication errors, including real-time alerts and detailed data logs events for compliance and auditing purposes. | ||
| 7. | Must have the capabilities for wireless connectivity to hospital networks for real-time updates, bar code scanning, remote monitoring, and integration with EMRs, including ORACLE HEALTH. | ||
| 8. | Must be high precision in delivering accurate flow rates and calculated volumes, ensuring consistent and precise medication administration. | ||
| 9. | Must have both visual and audible alarms for various conditions such as occlusion, air-in-line, low battery, empty container, and more to ensure patient safety. | ||
| 10. | Must have long lasting battery life designed to support continuous operation during transport and in areas without immediate access to power outlets. | ||
| 11. | Must have the compatibility to be mounted on a range of stands, poles, and mounting brackets to fit different clinical settings and workflows. | ||
| 12. | Must have comprehensive reporting, event logging of infusion data and events, analytic capabilities across all connected modules which can be reviewed and analyzed for quality improvement and regulatory compliance. | ||
| 13. | Must have the option for bolus delivery and “keep vein open” settings to maintain IV access and ensure continuous care. | ||
| 14. | Must have programming versatility for advanced programming options including continuous, intermittent, and patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) modes. | ||
| 15. | Must have safety enhancement features for anti-free-flow, occlusion detection, and pressure monitoring to ensure safe and reliable performance. | ||
| 16. | Must include a service computer program for preventive and corrective maintenance for testing and calibrating specific components, pressures, and volumes of infusion pumps. |
