EMS Sanitation QA Tech

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 is seeking a paperless EMS Quality Assurance Cleaning Inspection System for the Carl T. Hayden Medical Center in Phoenix, Arizona. The software technology aims to replace manual paper-based inspection processes by providing mobile inspection capabilities through phones and tablets with customizable templates, automated data collection, and comprehensive reporting features. The system will support various inspection types including daily cleaning, terminal/discharge cleaning, fluorescent marking, ATP testing, patient experience, and pest control management. Key requirements include vendor-hosted solutions with 24/7/365 maintenance support and automatic WiFi syncing capabilities. Responses from potential contractors are due by December 3, 2024, at 3:00 PM Eastern Time, with the solicitation number 36C26225Q0180 and falling under NAICS code 541620 for Environmental Consulting Services.

The contract is specifically set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), providing opportunities for this specific business category. The contractor must provide all necessary supplies, equipment, software, and training associated with the implementation of the inspection system. The system must be capable of collecting inspection data, photographs, notes, generating follow-up tickets, and producing comprehensive reports and dashboards. While specific award values are not explicitly stated, the procurement appears focused on a comprehensive software solution for improving sanitation management and quality assurance processes. The solution will directly support EMS supervisors and management teams by eliminating manual data entry, reducing rework, and streamlining reporting processes to meet regulatory requirements from organizations such as The Joint Commission and the Inspector General.
