Audiometric Software Solution

Added: Aug 05, 2015 3:32 pm The Naval Medical Logistics Command intends to award a sole source purchase order under the authority or FAR 13.501(a) with AudSoft, Inc., 1327 Ashton Road, Suite 203, Hanover, MD 21706, as the only responsible source that can provide AudBase Base software package which includes licensing for server database plus two (2) concurrent user licenses. This acquisition is being conducted under the FAR 13.5 test procedures for commercial items. Provisions and clauses in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-83 are incorporated.

Items being purchased in this acquisition:

AudBase Base software package which includes licensing for server database plus two (2) concurrent user licenses. Manual (point and click) data input or electronically transferred data from RS-232 equipment GSI-61 and Tympstar, GSI AudioStar, Madsen OTOsuite connected products, and Interacoustics Suite connected products. Forms can be viewed and/or printed in graphical or tabular format. AudBase Install and Training Package includes on-site install, training, and support for entire end user group and IT Department for each MTF plus cabling and port converters, if necessary. Also the software package will include license to print AudBase report to a file for attachment into electronic medical records (AHLTA). Install includes server software installation/configuration, client software installation/configuration, and audiometric equipment hookup. AudSoft Inc. is the manufacturer and sole vendor of AudBase. There are no other authorized vendors, distributors or providers of this software solution. AudBase audiology software meets and has been approved by the DoD Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process (DIACAP). While there are other products on the market that collect audiograms, those applications coincide with those vendor's medical devices, and changing would force the DoD to replace over half of the medical devices that are made from other vendors. AudBase is device agnostic and provides compatibility with all the major audiology equipment manufacturers, allowing the clinics to keep their existing audiometers and tympanometers.
