Ensuring high-quality services is an imperative of the US Army Medical Command (MEDCOM) as it strives to become a high-reliability organization (HRO). 3.0 BACKGROUND: The mission of the Department of Clinical Investigation (DCI) at Madigan Army Medical Center (MAMC) focuses on providing tools, training and expertise required to develop clinician and scholars who engage in intellectually rigorous, safe, and ethical conduct of research which advances the science of medicine. This contract service requirement for developing a virtual reality autonomous team simulation training will train individuals in identical environments, leveraging autonomous interactive trauma scenarios to allow more rapid assimilation to deployed treatment environments, decrease the time to life-saving interventions, decrease the risk of psychological trauma, and help maintain medical provider skills/readiness. 4.0 RESPONSE INSTRUCTIONS: Respondents should address the following in their capabilities statement: The scope of this effort requires the contractor to support the development of a high-fidelity, immersive environment-replicating Virtual Reality (VR) training platform to assess the impact on individual clinician and team trauma management performance in a simulated deployed treatment environment. VR replicas of ROLE I, and ROLE II environments will be created and replicated to include medical evacuation platforms, and fully integrate complex autonomous trauma management simulation cases, modular equipment availability/placement, modular grading system based on Role, Data Distribution System integration with additional sepsis and burn case simulations into these virtual environments. Incorporate multiplayer capability for team care, observer/teacher facilitation, transcontinental/coalition partner pilot study, and ROLE II mass casualty/multi-patient scenario. 5.0 CONTACT INFORMATION: All information regarding Capabilities Statements or any other proprietary information relative to this RFI shall be submitted via email to Brenda Mena at brenda.i.mena.civ@mail.mill no later than 10:00 a.m. E.S.T. on Friday, 10 July 2020.
