Wireless Temperature Monitoring System Replacement

San Mateo County Health (SMC Health) is soliciting proposals for a Wireless Temperature Monitoring System Replacement through a Request for Proposals (RFP) issued by the County of San Mateo's Health - Health IT department. The procurement seeks to replace the current FusionLive wireless temperature monitoring system that will end in 2025, with requirements for configuring 161 sensory devices to monitor temperatures in medication, vaccine, food storage, public health, and hospital laboratory refrigerators and freezers. The proposed system must meet specific technical specifications, including wireless connectivity, temperature measurement range of -40F to 250F, support for at least 100 wireless sensors, real-time monitoring, robust alerting mechanisms, comprehensive data logging, and integration capabilities. The evaluation will be based on four key criteria: solution integration with existing hardware (45 points), firm qualifications (15 points), product support and annual services (15 points), and price (25 points). Key dates include the RFP release on October 23, 2024, with proposals due by 2:00 pm on November 18, 2024, and an anticipated contract award date of January 1, 2025. The contract term is three years with two optional one-year renewals.

The RFP does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types. The current system is provided by Advanced Monitoring Method LLC using FusionLive technology, which will be replaced by the new solution. The new system is required to be a cloud-hosted web application with remote accessibility, customizable alerts, and robust security measures. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the procurement involves a comprehensive solution that includes hardware, software, implementation, training, and ongoing support services for a complex temperature monitoring system across multiple County Health divisions. The system must integrate with existing infrastructure and provide comprehensive user training and support services. The successful vendor will need to demonstrate extensive technical capabilities, including the ability to configure and deploy a sophisticated wireless monitoring system across 161 sensory points in various medical and public health storage environments.
