Does the RFP expressly state organization and user needs?

Please read carefully. Make sure you understand the assignment.

You have to download this template and fill in as part of the assignment. You have to worry about the name of the organization. I will do that. However, this is for a newly built assisted living and nursing home. Can accommodate 25 assisted and 65 nursing home patients. $25 million is in the budget.

You will conduct system selection, which requires completion of the following steps:

Reviewing a Request for Proposal (RFP)—this invites selected vendors to submit a proposal to you that outlines details of their proposed information system or systems.
Evaluation of the proposed system through on-site demonstration, site visits, reference checks, and making a decision.
Contract negotiation.

Assume that your healthcare organization has conducted an RFI, or a fact finding part of the system implementation and helps to select the potential vendors. It has requested information from vendors about their products and services. With the information gathered, the organization has screened the potential vendors and issues the RFP (request for proposal).
