What are Task-Based Informatics Professional Services
• "TBIPS" are Services related to a particular activity or initiative that are required to address a specific Information Technology
(IT) need, which are usually associated with a specified set of responsibilities.
The tasks involved are finite work assignments which require one or more consultants to complete. A task involves a
specific start date, a specific end date, and set deliverables. Tasks are usually not large projects, although they may be
subsets of a larger project. Tasks may require highly specialized work to be performed requiring rare or unique skill or
knowledge for a short period of time.
What are Solutions-Based Informatics Professional Services
•“SBIPS" comprise services and, in certain situations, essential goods, whereby a supplier supplies a complete operational
solution to a requirement, manages the overall project and accepts responsibility for the outcome.
It may include end to end project work where the Supplier is requested to devise a solution to a business problem in
which case there may be a proof of concept; or a requirement where there is a business problem and a supplier comes forth
with a methodology, an approach or an already established solution as well as the requisite expertise to enable the Supplier to
leverage the value of the, methodology, approach or solution. Although some Technology Infrastructure (hardware and
software) may be required for some solutions projects, suppliers should be aware that Technology Infrastructure (TI)
procurement is allowed under the Supply Arrangement only when it involves limited enhancements, additions or updates to an
24
existing infrastructure.
