BlueWare Rules of Engagement for Partnering

 

BlueWare has a non-exclusive approach to supplying and a semi-exclusive approach to partnering.

 

Supplier Approach

BlueWare will provide a statement of work and quotation to partners who request this from us.  This may include:

·         Hardware sizing information

·         BlueWare software pricing, bill of materials for specific implementations

·         BlueWare services pricing 

·         Written responses to written inquiries on BlueWare product’s functions and features

 

BlueWare will not provide:

·         Consultancy on solution design and/or architecture

·         Collaborative or detailed input into specific customer responses i.e. PQQ, RFP, RFI,    

                             OBS documents

·         Tailored demonstration environments for particular customers

·         Presentations to customers

·         Sales support or technical support for customer meetings

 

If a business partner has been engaged with BlueWare in a "supplier" relationship during a bid process and wins the business, BlueWare may change the relationship from "supplier" to "partner" once the contracts have been signed.

 

If one business partner has been engaged with BlueWare in a "supplier" relationship during a bid process and:

·         There is no other business partner engaged as an "exclusive partner" OR

·         If another "exclusive partner" is deselected or chooses to withdraw from the competition

BlueWare may change the relationship from "supplier" to "exclusive partner."

 

Partner Approach

BlueWare may have multiple "partners" within a market.

BlueWare will on occasion agree to be an "exclusive partner" for a specific opportunity.  When BlueWare is an "exclusive partner" with one partner on an opportunity, BlueWare may also have a “supplier" relationship with other partners bidding on the same opportunity.

 

When BlueWare acts as an "exclusive partner" on an opportunity,

 

BlueWare will:

·      Sign confidentiality and "exclusive partnering" agreements with the "exclusive partner"

·      Act as a team member with the "exclusive partners" in the consortium to actively win    the business together

·      Provide consultancy on solution design and/or architecture

·      Collaborate closely with "exclusive partners" to provide detailed and winning responses to PQQs, RFPs, RFIs, OBS etc.

·      Attend customer meetings with partners

·      Provide demonstrations and presentations at customer meetings

 

BlueWare will not:

·      Have more than one "exclusive partner"  for a specific opportunity

·      Switch to another "exclusive partner" during the sales cycle on the basis that another partner is looking more favorable to win the business 

·      Break confidentiality agreements between BlueWare and the "exclusive partner"

·      Provide preferential pricing unless an Enterprise License Agreement has been signed (this is based on committed volumes with some upfront payment)

 

 

 


“With the Wellness Connection available, I am able to access my patient information at home or in my office. I am able to review past admissions for review, access patient demographics, laboratory and x-ray information. I remember how surprised a nurse was when I called the unit from home regarding my patient…with Wellness, I actually had access to the lab results hit the unit” Dr. Dennis Pank, MD


“I use Wellness all of the time…with the web-based access I use Wellness to review my personal and group census while making round in the hospital with my wireless laptop, at home and when I am seeing patients in my office. What makes Wellness so valuable is the patient data. I can view radiology reports and laboratory results within 30 minutes of the completed tests.” Dr. Kenneth Yokosawa, MD


“I use the Wellness Connection everyday now…I can access it from anywhere…I can see multiple charts for a patient, including the previous visits. Because there is immediate accessibility, I find there is no ‘lost chart’. I don’t have to try to locate the chart on the floor if it is not in medical records which often used to happen. I have more rapid access to reports such as lab and radiology then the other systems, especially on the floor. In addition, it assists us in our billing process, making it faster.” Dr. Clark Headrick, DO
