Breadth of Services & Products

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is aware that most Government Agencies are experiencing increasing requirements for imaging systems to convert paper documents for electronic storage, to provide document management, and manage administrative correspondence work flows. Imaging systems are also becoming more prevalent as research tools in clinical, biological, and radiological research areas. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are also an area of interest to the NIH in global health trials and other Federal Government agencies. As with all computationally based technologies, imaging system capabilities are rapidly changing. The pace of this change coupled with the lengthy process for establishing acquisition and maintenance contracts for these systems has often been a problem. Requirement specifications which are more than a year old may miss important capabilities and lead to a shortened useful lifetime for the procured system. The NIH recognizes that a need exists to keep pace with new acquisition contracting methodologies. In response to this need, NIH has implemented ImageWorld2 as a means to address these needs Government-wide.
