The following information is under construction. For full content see the OpenHIE Specification. If you would like to contribute an outline or template for a tender or RFP, we can remove sensitive details and post examples here. |
The purpose of this document is to provide resources for those in MOHs or implementer institutions who may be creating tenders or RFPs for HIE or HIE component requirements.
One of the key goals of the OpenHIE Architecture Specification is to articulate the requirements for the typical HIE components. The following content can be used as a foundation for creating content for tender requests or requests for proposals.
Consider noting the key use cases or business use of the intended solution.
Examples might be:
You may want to consider providing an overview of the HIE and the components needed to support your use case(s). You may refer to the OpenHIE documentation or refer to country specific architecture documentation.
Reference: Overview of the OpenHIE Architecture as an example.
You may want to consider outline key principles such as use of data exchange standards.
Consider documenting the standards that you would like to use. These are the current standards that OpenHIE recommends.
If you are creating a tender for a comprehensive HIE, consider these references as you describe each component and outline the high-level requirements. For a tender for a specific component, consider the Non-functional Requirements and the description of the specific component that is being requested.
