25/504 Procurement of an electronic medicine system (ELS).

Stange Health and Care Centre consists of five departments for long term stays and short-term stays with a total of 104 patient rooms. 22, 24, 24, 16 and 18 patients live respectively in the different departments. There are also 10 sheltered accommodation flats connected to the entity, for which employees at the company are responsible for handling medicines. The majority of patients at the organisation have medicines through multi-dose, only with dosing changes, possibly medication and short-term cures, manual dosing is required. The company currently has 5 fully fledged medicine rooms, which shall now be re-combined into one common medicine room. Stange Health and Care Centre therefore needs to procure an electronic medicine system (ELS), with an accompanying annual maintenance agreement. In addition, each department needs safe and traceable storage of any medicine (five devices), which are available in the department. Option: If a tenderer can offer medicine trolleys, the Contracting Authority shall have an option to procure this. The contracting authority shall also have an option to procure ELS with a maintenance contract for other entities in the municipality, e.g. for Ottestad health and mastering centre, which has 30 short-term places and 10 long-term places. There are no plans or resources to expand the system to other organisations at the present time. If this is relevant, other entities will need one to two cupboards. Any options shall be taken up within 4 years from the date the contract is signed.
