    Draft Statement of Objectives (27 Sep 2024).docx
    The U.S. Army Medical Materiel Development Activity (USAMMDA) aims to develop a portable ultrasound system called Ultrasound Field Portable (USFP) for military use. This system will assist health care professionals in diagnosing or ruling out severe injuries in austere environments, reducing unnecessary evacuations. The contract consists of purchasing and modifying the Philips Lumify ultrasound system to eliminate network connectivity, addressing cybersecurity risks through a Risk Management Framework (RMF) assessment. Key objectives include the purchase of seven Philips Lumify systems, facilitating an RMF assessment, and conducting a logistics demonstration. In addition, a training support package will be developed for military personnel, ensuring they are equipped to use the modified systems effectively. The contract also includes options for purchasing 61 additional units and providing instructor training. Overall, this initiative addresses significant gaps in combat casualty care by enabling faster, more precise diagnoses in the field, while ensuring compliance with military requirements and cybersecurity measures. The government emphasizes the need for military-specific adaptations and training to enhance medical readiness in combat situations.
