Introduction
1. Invitation to Submit

This Request for Proposal (“RFP”) is an invitation to Vendors to put forward a Submission for the provision of end user computer devices and associated peripherals as described in Section 3. Minimum mandatory requirements are identified within the same section.

In responding to this RFP, you will be deemed to have taken into account all the terms and conditions in the RFP and be in a capacity to fulfill the proposed solution.

1. About OntarioMD

OntarioMD supports clinician practices to use innovative digital health, virtual care and quality improvement tools to address their practice needs. More than 20,000 physicians and 1,000 nurse practitioners are enrolled in our programs and are realizing the value of our digital health services and approaches to enhance patient care. OntarioMD is also playing a key role to support clinicians who are joining Ontario Health Teams (OHTs) to enhance the provision of integrated care across the Ontario health care system.

We have a successful track record in developing and implementing provincial digital health tools that are integrated with certified electronic medical records (EMRs) based on clinicians' needs. These include our award-winning Health Report Manager (HRM®), eNotifications and Insights4Care (i4C) Dashboard tools, and EMR-integrated eConsult. We are an important delivery partner for the organizations that comprise Ontario Health, to deploy other provincial digital health tools to Ontario primary care clinicians on their behalf.

To support OntarioMD’s priorities, our strategic plan for 2020-25 is based on three main strategic areas of focus:

Corporate growth and sustainability
Leading delivery partner
Digital health advocacy

With successful implementation of EMRs across physician practices behind us, the primary care sector is engaged in a vigorous conversation about the best approaches to expand and integrate EMRs so that the greatest value is delivered to patients, physicians, and the health system. The new and overwhelming demand for virtual care accelerates this discourse.

As the health system and primary care sector continue to undergo transformation across the country, we are positioned to provide thought leadership, explore new avenues of innovation and interoperability, and develop new partnerships and business models to advance digital health in Canada. OntarioMD is ready to build on its strengths and contributions and find new ways to add value to the health system. Through partnerships, deep relationships with physician practices and trusted delivery reputation, OntarioMD is the partner of choice for health system leaders as they seek to advance their objectives and meaningfully engage with clinicians.

We remain focused on understanding and advocating for the needs of clinicians and their patients, to make sure that technology continues to evolve to meet their needs now and into the future. Everything we do should “allow doctors to be doctors”. This means more intelligent systems, more insight-oriented tools, and less data entry. Integration is the ongoing theme for as our efforts are geared to connecting health system resources to add value to clinicians with patients at the centre of their care. We will nurture our great relationships with our vendors and our health system delivery partners, as we know that there is more work to do together.

As health system transformation drives new clinical relationships and collaborations, we will work to deliver digital health products, services and change management supports that we know make a difference to care delivery.

OntarioMD is committed to informing our partners and stakeholders with regular public reporting. We publish monthly reports and an annual report that outlines our achievements over the past fiscal year and our strategic plans for the future.

OntarioMD is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Ontario Medical Association. It is funded by Ontario Health, not from OMA members' dues.

1. OntarioMD’s Business Need

OntarioMD is undertaking a client computing hardware refresh with goals of modernizing both the fleet of devices and the process by which devices are deployed to and supported for users who are now largely in a home office setting. Additionally, we are seeking to move to a procurement model that emphasizes predictable operational expenditures and built-in device evergreen services that ensure the device fleet is refreshed with consistency to maintain currency of technology.

We are looking for a minimum initial term of three (3) or four (4) years to upgrade our fleet of approximately a total of 140 devices (which includes end user laptops and desktops) and peripherals as part of this refresh. This quantity is our estimate of requirements. Actual quantities may vary but the number of deployed devices is not expected to vary by more than ±10% during this period. A secondary term as an option may be considered at OntarioMD’s discretion.

OntarioMD expects to submit an order for the approximately 140 devices by March 1, 2021, with order fulfillment to be completed by March 26, 2021.

1. Brand Names

OntarioMD will only be considering four brands of hardware. Those brands are Dell, HP, Lenovo and Microsoft. All supporting accessories (namely docking station/port expander hardware should be of the same brand as the primary proposed hardware).

OntarioMD is willing to consider a mix of brands to satisfy the needs of the different user profiles; with a heavy preference for solutions where the Respondent can demonstrate homogeneity in procurement/deployment/support processes across the entire suite of hardware (e.g., all use the same deployment method, have similar support levels).

The Respondent must offer a Device Catalog from the vendor that lists the proposed computing device and its parameters (including model brand/name, specifications, availability), as well as relevant peripherals accessories to support and enhance usability of said device according to the user scenarios (e.g. docking station, video adapter cable, external keyboard/mouse set, battery pack, memory upgrade module).

1. Quantities

The stated quantities are OntarioMD’s estimates of requirements. Actual quantities may vary but the number of deployed devices is not expected to vary by more than ±10% during this period.

OntarioMD expects to submit the order by March 1, 2021, with order fulfillment to be completed by March 26, 2021.

1. Deployment

OntarioMD seeks to deploy acquired assets through a direct-to-user deployment approach.

OntarioMD is presently licensed for and leverages the Microsoft 365 platform. All users are assigned M365 E3 licenses and are synchronized to AzureAD with some assets managed through Microsoft Endpoint Management.

The technical deployment process must support the use of Microsoft Autopilot as the primary means of setup and pre-configuration.

Device Distribution
As part of the order process, OntarioMD will provide a list of all users for whom devices are intended, including Name, Address, and Contact information, for the sole purpose of the vendor shipping devices directly to the individual users at residential addresses distributed geographically across the Province of Ontario.

The proposal should outline how the Respondent intends to support this distribution process, while assuring and maintaining strict privacy/confidentiality of all provided user contact information.

Proposals should describe steps to be taken by the Respondent to mitigate COVID-19 transmission as part of device preparation and packaging before the device is delivered to the user.

First-Run Experience
The deployment of devices should emphasize a minimal-touch deployment experience requiring users to only unbox the device and initiate a guided first-run experience with minimal input by the user beyond supplying WiFi connection details and OntarioMD domain account credentials. The device should then perform operating system and firmware updates, join the AzureAD domain, and register for Microsoft Endpoint Manager management.

Some users are in locations with limited internet connectivity so the initial download package (driver updates/software installations) should be restricted to a minimal size (<20GB). The Respondent is asked to propose viable options with pricing for minimizing this download package further for the small set of users facing this limitation.

Standard Applications
OntarioMD leverages a basic suite of applications that must be installed and configured “ready-to-use” following the first-run experience.

The proposed deployment solution must support the automatic deployment of the basic suite of applications as part of the first run experience. The suite is limited to include:

Microsoft 365 Office Suite
Palo Alto Networks GlobalProtect VPN Client
Cylance Protect Antivirus Client

1. 1. Mandatory Deployment Requirements
The respondent must demonstrate support for the device distribution and first run experience aspects noted in section 3.5 above.

Respondent must be capable of deploying directly to individual users, located at residential addresses across the Province of Ontario as described above

Deployment process must include appropriate confirmation notifications to users as well as a central authority at OntarioMD, responsible for assisting with coordination of deployment

Respondent must identify steps taken to ensure privacy/confidentiality of all user information provided for the purpose of the deployment.

Respondent must demonstrate established guidelines to mitigate COVID-19 transmission as part of the configuration/packaging process prior to shipment to the user

All computer devices proposed by Respondent, as well as deployment process itself must support deployment via Microsoft Autopilot, which includes but is not limited to registering all devices with the Windows Autopilot deployment service

1. Product Return Policy

The Respondent shall have in place a mechanism to deal with product returns. In the event that a device does not perform in accordance with the requirements of this RFP, the Respondent will accept its return. In an attempt to eliminate any Dead-On-Arrival (DOA) returns, all new equipment must be fully configured and tested before installation is complete.

1. Device Support

OntarioMD has a ServiceDesk (with limited remote support and after-hours capability) responsible for performing initial triage where the issue is due to software fault, or if the issue needs to undergo initial triage to confirm whether hardware or software fault.

The proposal shall describe options for augmenting this support, with focus on permitting for quick resolution of hardware fault issues such as but not limited to:

No boot/no power
Port(s) stopped working
Issues with display (e.g., not display, flickering)
Keyboard or individual keys not functioning
Battery not charging.

Respondents should submit proposals for how to best provide warranty support for devices in a distributed work-from-home model, for example, through direct to end user warranty hardware replacements. In this model, the supporting party should have the capacity to coordinate the replacement with the user directly.

The warranty offering should have options for service level of 48 hours service or better.

The proposal should also include options for additional support and warranty coverage (e.g., accidental damage, next day replacement, etc.).

1. 1. Mandatory Device Support Requirements
All computer devices must include a minimum 3-year warranty, advanced exchange warranty
Respondent to outline support process for hardware issues, which enables OntarioMD users to engage and obtain support from the support provider directly within the terms of the warranty/support agreement (i.e., minimizing OntarioMD ServiceDesk involvement for troubleshooting of hardware issues and coordination of any required replacement)
Respondent must provide at least one option for express replacement (Guaranteed replacement within 48 hours or better from time of issue being reported)
Respondent must provide at least one option for accidental damage protection coverage

1. Procurement Payment/Financing Model

OntarioMD seeks to move to a procurement model that:

Minimizes up front capital outlay
Emphasizes predicable operational expenditures over the term of the contract
Offers built in device evergreen approaches to ensure device fleet is refreshed with consistency to maintain currency of technology.

Proposals should include all of the following options, where available:

Purchase financing over the term
Lease, with buy out terms
Device as a Service

OntarioMD will determine the most fitting proposal based on a cost/value assessment.

1. 1. Mandatory Procurement Requirements
Respondents should provide all terms of the leasing, finance, and Desktop-as-a-Service options, as OntarioMD’s intention is to compare a range of proposals that provide us best value. However, the proposals must:
1. Include options for, at a minimum, three (3) and four (4) year terms
2. For lease options, a secondary (3) year term for next device refresh cycle is expected to add to the initial term. Any additional hardware refresh costs should be included in proposals
3. For a lease, include an option to purchase or retain hardware at the completion of the lease
4. Include sample agreements along with comments on what is variable for each executed agreement.

Respondent must be able to fulfill the full equipment order, with delivery to all targeted users with all fulfillment (equipment in the possession of all assigned users) to be completed by no later than March 26, 2021

In accordance with Section 3.3 Brand Names, the Respondent must offer a Device Catalog from the vendor that lists the proposed computing device and its parameters (including model brand/name, specifications, availability, pricing information), as well as commonly relevant peripherals accessories to support and enhance usability of said device according to the user scenarios (e.g. docking station, video adapter cable, external keyboard/mouse set, battery pack, memory upgrade module)

Pricing

Pricing is an important factor in our evaluation of best value for proposals received. In order to have clarity for comparison purposes, respondents shall submit pricing proposals with the following considerations:

Clearly indicate the yearly cost, per device, over the term inclusive of all leasing/financing considerations (e.g. an all-in, per device/year total). Please refer to Section 3.8 for more details

Provide pricing information in Microsoft Excel workbook format. All dollar amounts are to be stated in Canadian funds.

The Pricing document is to be submitted as a separate file.
