Short description

The Contracting Authority (Children Health Ireland-CHI) is seeking to appoint an Economic Operator to deliver, implement and provide ongoing support for an Electronic Health Record (“EHR”) for Children’s Health Ireland (CHI)
The HSE have established a national EHR programme which includes four key components: Acute Operational Systems (Acute EHR), Community Operational Systems (Community EHR), and a national shared record that seamlessly interface with a national integration platform. These components will integrate with existing national systems (including MedLIS, NIMIS and the MN-CMS) to deliver an integrated national solution. The planning of this Programme is in progress.
Given the timelines for opening the new children’s hospital, the CHI will procure an Acute EHR through a Single Supplier Contract. The national EHR programme elements are outside the scope of this procurement process, however there will be a requirement to integrate with the national programme.
