About this opportunity

Santa Clara County is soliciting proposals for a Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) to serve the Radiology department of the County's Health and Hospital System, with a proposal deadline of March 16, 2026. The County seeks a Software as a Service (SaaS) solution that stores, retrieves, and displays digital medical images including X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans, along with a vendor-neutral archiving solution capable of accepting multiple PACS implementations. Mandatory requirements include full HIPAA compliance with federal and state regulations, the ability to store non-DICOM objects in native format, and bidirectional data exchange capability via HL7 with Epic and other healthcare systems. The primary objectives are to replace the current PACS system that has been in use for over fifteen years but now suffers from lack of modern features, frequent downtime, and poor scalability, while improving workflow efficiency, reducing operational downtime, and extending imaging services to departments beyond Radiology such as Cardiology and the Emergency Department. The selected vendor must provide a modern, cloud-based PACS integrated with a Vendor Neutral Archive (VNA) in a single-vendor solution that addresses current data synchronization issues between the existing Merative VNA and legacy system and provides flexible medical image data sharing and receiving capabilities across the organization.

The solicitation document does not explicitly state any set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise restrictions, or specific award values or budget ranges. The incumbent vendor information is not provided in the available procurement details. Santa Clara Valley Healthcare (SCVH) Radiology's current PACS contract expires in 2027, indicating a transition period for implementation of the new system. The selected vendor must demonstrate capability to integrate seamlessly with the organization's existing Merative VNA infrastructure while providing a single source of truth for medical imaging data across multiple departments and healthcare systems, ensuring enhanced interoperability and operational efficiency compared to the current siloed approach.
