2.0 SCOPE OF WORK
The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Non-Expendable Equipment National Program has identified the ECGDMS product line as a candidate for a VA-wide (otherwise referred to as national ) single award Requirements contract.

ECG Data Management Systems (ECGDMS) are designed to store and manage data from a variety of non-invasive diagnostic cardiovascular procedures, such as resting and exercise electrocardiography, echocardiography, and electrophysiology studies. Unlike most Cardiology Information and Image Management Systems (CIIMS) which provide similar data storage functions, ECG data management systems are specifically designed to store and analyze ECG waveforms to assist with diagnosis and facilitate data retrieval when physicians need to compare newly acquired ECGs to older tracings for the same patient. Most systems can also store and analyze data from cardiac stress tests and other diagnostic procedures. Some systems allow for digital dictation and storage of physician interpretation information.

The objective is to provide brand name GE MUSE ECGDMS or equal ECGDMS to be used by clinicians throughout the VA medical centers and facilities. The period of performance is for a base of 12-months with four 12-month option periods.

Literature Review

For each product (brand name and part number), the response must include descriptive literature demonstrating the product meets or exceeds the salient characteristics (SC) specified above.

The Government's intent is to include all ancillary items to ensure the equipment can function as designed by the OEM and as clinically required. Vendors are encouraged to provide any product solution or configuration so long as they meet the salient characteristics. Additionally, responses can include any additional product that may be beneficial. These items must be clearly identified by brand name and part number.
