Ortivus has been selected as the preferred bidder to deliver its prehospital MobiMed electronic patient care record (“ePCR”) system by the South West Ambulance Service Trust (SWAST). The fully managed MobiMed service includes delivery of ePCR software, hardware and 24/7 support and shall be implemented throughout the Trust which handles over 80,000 patient calls per month and has approximately 600 vehicles. The total value of the order is £8.5M. Installation is expected to start during 2020 and the agreement is valid over a five-year period with an option to extend by up to two years.
”The award was made following completion of an OJEU procurement process led by SWAST which was open to all suppliers and this evaluation provides further evidence of the comprehensive product and service offering that Ortivus’ MobiMed solution delivers, meeting the high demands of a modern ambulance service trust.” said Reidar Gårdebäck, CEO for Ortivus UK.

The initial contract was for a period of 4 years and subsequently extended to the maximum length of 6 years.
