Healthcare Labeling Solution

The Washington State Department of Corrections (DOC) is conducting a competitive solicitation (DOC Competitive Solicitation # K13620) for a new medical records patient identifier labeling system. The DOC is seeking a replacement for their current paper-based system used across 11 multidisciplinary healthcare facilities in the state. The desired system must function as a standalone offline system as well as have the capability to connect to a network/computer to support the DOC's eventual transition to an electronic health record system. Proposals are due by 2:00 PM Pacific Time on December 2, 2024, and a pre-bid conference is scheduled for November 13, 2024. The contract term is approximately 3 years, with an option to renew for an additional 3 years. The DOC will evaluate proposals based on technical requirements, cost, and a preference for firms without mandatory individual arbitration for employees.

The solicitation covers multiple jurisdictions across Washington, including counties, cities, and census designated places. No set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond are specified. Additionally, the solicitation does not provide details on any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it specify an award value or budget range. The DOC indicates it is seeking cost-efficient proposals that demonstrate the ability to implement the required activities.
