Up to $43.2M to GE Healthcare for US Military Patient Monitoring Systems
GE Healthcare in Wauwatosa, WI won a maximum $43.2 million fixed price with economic price adjustment contract to supply patient monitoring systems to the US military as well as federal civilian agencies.
GE Healthcare received its 1st contracts to supply patient monitoring systems to the US military in March 2009, after 2 years of negotiations between the company and the US Defense Supply Center Philadelphia. GE received two 10-year contracts (1 year base with 9 one-year options), worth a maximum of $63 million annually, to supply patient monitoring systems as well as supporting communications equipment and IT systems…
Under the March 2009 contracts, GE Healthcare is also supplying diagnostic cardiology devices and cardiology information archival systems; catheterization laboratory monitoring; Datex-Ohmeda anesthesia delivery, infant incubators and warmers; and fetal monitoring, perinatal information systems, and blood pressure cuffs to the US military and US federal agencies.
For the $43.2 million contract, the date of performance completion is Jan 13/11. There were originally 17 proposals solicited with 9 responses received by the Defense Supply Center Philadelphia, PA (SPM2D1-09-D-8300).
GE Healthcare locks up remote patient monitoring contract with the DoD for $43.2mm, but this is merely the tip of the iceberg in Federal Health IT-related opportunities.
