The Department of Defense (DOD) is seeking proposals for advanced information technology to improve mobility, interoperability, and survivability of the Expeditionary Medical Command, Control, Communications, and Computers (Direct to Phase II). The objective is to develop expeditionary and interoperable IT solutions for healthcare delivery, medical command and control, medical logistics, and patient movement in austere and contested environments. The solutions should bridge the gaps between expeditionary medical units, brick-and-mortar medical facilities, and other healthcare providers. The focus is on developing mobile and rugged command, control, communications, and computer (C4) IT solutions that enable interoperability across all medical and administrative functions and domains. The solutions should implement joint/industry communications and health IT standards, meet cybersecurity requirements, and be resilient, scalable, and extensible. The project will have a Phase I and Phase II, with Phase II including design refinement, prototype development, and testing. The deliverables include one prototype, design and plans, progress reports, and a final report. The Phase III will focus on deploying the C4IT capability in an operational environment and optimizing the design for commercial viability. Potential commercial applications include organizations requiring distributed operations, disaster relief efforts, and industries struggling with disparate systems and growing user bases. The project is open for proposals until March 31, 2025. For more information, visit the solicitation agency's website here.
