2.0 SUBJECT: The U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA) is issuing this Sources Sought synopsis on behalf of the Defense Health Agency (DHA) Medical Logistics Directorate as a means of conducting Market Research to identify potential sources having an interest and availability to provide the requirement for Medical Logistics Authoritative Data Exchange and Medical Logistics Database Subscription Services that support modernization and data standardization in Health Alerts and Equipment Management Lines of Business (LOBs). The Authoritative Data Exchange and Database Subscription Services will be Information Technology (IT) services, external to the Department of Defense (DoD).

3.0 BACKGROUND: The DoD medical logistics community supports diverse LOBs, to include equipment property and biomedical maintenance management; pharmaceuticals and medical surgical inventory management; purchasing and quality assurance; and assemblage and facilities management. The primary Information Systems (IS) supporting these LOBs are the Defense Medical Logistics Standard Support (DMLSS) system, LogiCole application and the Theater Enterprise-Wide Logistics System (TEWLS). Over the last twenty (20) years, these systems have inherited as-built data from a number of Army, Navy and Air Force logistics and property legacy applications. As a result of these historical data merges, the two (2) aforementioned systems contain data variances and data diversion. The lack of authoritative source data has impeded effective decision analysis and constrained optimized business processes.

The DHA and Medical Logistics Information Technology Program Management Office (MEDLOG IT PMO) have initiated a major technical refresh that will merge both the programmatic and technical components of all existing Defense Medical Logistics applications [DMLSS, TEWLS and Joint Medical Asset Repository (JMAR)] into a single program, the Defense Medical Logistics – Enterprise Solution (DML-ES) and a single application called LogiCole.

The following Database Subscriptions that are required to assist with this technical refresh are as follows: (1) Alerts Automatch – Equipment; (2) Alerts Automatch – Supplies; (3) Alerts Workflow; (4) Capital Guide; (5) Decision Visualization; (6) Equipment – Data Standardization; (7) Functional Equivalents; (8) Alerts Tracking for Patient Safety Communications; (9) Supply Guide (10) Product Catalog; and (11) Utilization Analytics.

4.0 RESPONSE INSTRUCTIONS: Respondents should address the following in their capabilities statement:
