4. IA will be responsible for primary dedicated MPLS based Link (min. 2 Mbps for 23 location i.e. medical colleges and district hospitals) from periphery (hospital/ college) to DC as well as DR location. For remaining location IA will provide decide MPLS link based bandwidth to meet the requirement and fulfill the SLA. State will be responsible for DC to DR connectivity. 5. IA will be responsible for primary dedicated MPLS Link (min. 2 Mbps for 23 location i.e. medical colleges and district hospitals) from periphery (hospital/ college) to DC as well as DR location. For remaining location IA will provide MPLS link based bandwidth to meet the SLA requirement. IA shall be responsible for the following connectivity: DC to MPLS Cloud minimum 2 Mbps for point to point DR to MPLS Cloud - minimum 2 Mbps for point to point Individual locations to the MPLS cloud connectivity of 2Mbps for DH & MCH Other individual locations to MPLS cloud connectivity of 512 Kbps (or as required to meet the SLA requirements) 6. IA will install appropriate surge protection device at each location. The Surge protection device/system shall be installed between the Raw power & UPS so that the system (Servers, networking component, terminal equipment like PC, Printer, Scanner etc. shall be protected from any surges or other voltage deviations. Unit price of appropriate surge protection device need to be quoted in the commercials also. 7. Requirement of Manpower Resources As per the envisaged project implementation plan, the manpower resources shall be required to be deployed by the IA for 3 key activities, as described below: 1. Helpdesk Support: During the pilot phase, there are 4 physical counters, 1 at each pilot location are proposed to be setup as Helpdesk centers, with a desktop / thin client and access to the HIS application after Go-Live. Considering the fact that the footfall at pilot PHC and CHC would be less, as compared to DH and Medical College, the physical Helpdesk counters from the pilot PHC and CHC may be shifted to DH and Medical College, after sometime, or 1 additional physical counter may be deployed at both DH and Medical College, as required. This arrangement is expected to be for a period of 9 months, starting from the date of pilot Go-Live i.e. after 9 months, till the date of Phase 2 Go-Live i.e. after 18 months (including the 3 months stabilization period). After completion of Phase 1 implementation, the set up for centralized Helpdesk is envisaged, which is expected to commence its operations from the date of Phase 2 Go-Live i.e. after 18 months and all the people deployed at physical Helpdesk counters after Pilot Go-Live described above i.e. minimum 4 and maximum 6, are expected to shift to this centralized Helpdesk center, handling queries, suggestions, complaints / grievances and information requirements logged through toll free number, email and HIS Web portal. The minimum number of seats is proposed to be 5 to start with and analyze the seats requirement (increase of decrease) based on call volume every quarter. During the first quarter after Phase 2 Go-Live, the service levels with
respect to Helpdesk support (Part A) as defined in the SLA matrix described in RFP volume 3 Page 91, shall not be applicable. However after due analysis of call volumes, the number of seats may be increased or decreased by the IA and all the SLA for Part A Helpdesk shall be applicable from second quarter of phase II onwards. This quarterly analysis should continue till the call volumes stabilize and then IA may, in agreement with HSHRC, decide to continue to optimum number of centralized Helpdesk seats. 2. Handholding Support: The handholding support is envisaged after each Phase Go-Live, to the maximum period of 6 months (9 months in case of Pilot phase including the 3 months stabilization period). The number of manpower resources expected to be deployed by the IA for this activity should be on an average 1 resource per location, according to the number of location covered under that particular phase. E.g. during Pilot Phase, the total number of location covered are 4, so the minimum number of resources expected to be deployed by the IA for this activity should be 4. This should be deployed for 6 months from the period of pilot Go- Live. After which these resources may then be withdrawn. Additional resources, as per the above specified requirement would be deployed at all other location covered under Phase 2 for the same activity. This should be from the period of 2nd Phase Go-Live till 3rd Phase Go-Live, i.e. total 6 months period @ one resource per location similarly, all these resources may then be withdrawn at the end of 6 months. Additional resources deployed at all other location covered under Phase 3 for the same activity. This should be from the period of 3rd Phase Go-Live for 6 months period. All the resources deployed for handholding support may then be withdrawn after 6 months of Phase 3 Go-Live. Without altering the total number the resource may be redeployed at appropriate locations depending on workload at the time of implementation after discussion with HSHRC. 3. IT Support: In addition to the handholding resource mentioned above IT support is envisaged to commence from Pilot Phase Go-Live till the end of contract period by providing additional manpower. The number of manpower resources expected to be deployed by the IA for this activity should be on an average 1 resource per location, according to the number of location covered under that particular phase. E.g. during Pilot Phase, the total number of location covered are 4, so the minimum number of resources expected to be deployed by the IA for this activity should be 4. Similarly the number of resources should be increased in accordance with the number of locations covered under Phase 2 and Phase 3, till maximum of 55 Resources. Though it is not mandatory that 1 resource be stationed permanently at each location for the entire duration, especially at a PHC or CHC, however it is expected that dedicated resources should be deployed atleast at DH and Medical Colleges, with one resource heading the IT support team deployed across all project locations. The IA is free to propose and implement a suitable model for optimal utilization of resources and also to meet the stated Service Levels for IT support, in agreement with HSHRC. The operational model must include management and monitoring of IT support activities from DH.
The above manpower requirements though segregated with respect to the type of activity, phases and locations covered under each phase; however the overall mechanism for efficiently meeting the requirements for above 3 activities through optimal utilization of resources may be proposed by IA after survey and implemented in agreement with HSHRC. It is therefore neither linear addition of resource for each of the above 3 activities nor are mutually exclusive. 8. In Volume III, Schedule VII-Service Levels, Section 20.3, Service Level Parameters - Definition of Terms, Point No. 5 : Helpdesk Support" shall mean the 24x7x365 centre which shall handle Fault reporting, Trouble Ticketing and related enquiries during this contract. This should now be read as OEM Support shall mean the 24x7x365 centre which shall handle Fault reporting, Trouble Ticketing and related enquiries during this contract. 9.
