Statement of Work (SOW)
STATEMENT OF WORK FOR POINT OF CARE (POC) SYNAPSE SYNCHRONICITY PICTURE ARCHIVING AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (PACS)

Philadelphia VA Medical Center (VAMC)
Corporal Michael J. Crescenz VA Medical Center
3900 Woodland Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19104
Background
Philadelphia VAMC requires an ultrasound PACS image storage system for the hospital s point-of-care ultrasounds. Synapse Synchronicity software communicates with point-of-care (POC) ultrasound devices via Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) and Customer's Patient Registration/Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems via Health Level 7 (HL7). The Synchronicity system integrates with the Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology Architecture (VistA) to provide a long-term contingency. This is an image storage and interface solution for the hospital that fills a current gap for ultrasound image review and storage in Critical Care (CC), Interventional Radiology (IR), and the Emergency Department (ED). Without an ultrasound image storage system, the VA has no long-term storage solution for POC health history and image records from procedural cases (i.e. needle guided procedures). Additionally, these records provide documentation support for any potential legal challenges due to patient care.

Project Scope
The Contractor shall provide application licensing, installation, and training of staff on the Synchronicity PACS system. Contractor will be required to coordinate with Biomedical Engineering staff on system setup, system configuration, interface testing, and necessary clinical training for a fully functioning Ultrasound POC PACS system. The Contractor will include all labor, software, software licenses, and training to deploy the system specified herein.

Compatibility
Must integrate with VistA Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS) via HL7 & VistA Imaging via DICOM
Must integrate with Philadelphia VA Medical Center s (VAMC) existing ultrasounds See Appendix A for inventory.
There must be no limit to the number of ultrasounds that can be connected to the system.
Software must be compatible with existing Office of Information and Technology (OI&T) workstation hardware.
Software must be Microsoft Windows 10 and Microsoft Windows 11 compatible.
Application server software must be Microsoft Windows Server 2019 or higher.

Specifications
All software will be hosted within a server based virtual environment and necessary OI&T workstation hardware.
