Part Number: 97051-102, HL7 Configuration The sole source determination is based on several factors, as there are advantages with continuing with the present system. First, the Viasys is already integrated with CRIS, the NIH CRC medical record system. It took a great deal of time and effort, from multiple parties, to create a functional interface. Bringing on a new system could lead to substantial delays in data transmission via a new CRIS interface. In addition, it would likely lead to increased costs and staff time. Second, the pulmonary function laboratory staff is familiar with the Viasys equipment line and is able to troubleshoot problems. Third, it may cost more in service contract fees to purchase a different system. In order to continue uninterrupted service, the laboratory staff is required to maintain at least three (3) up-to-date PFT operating systems.
