Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) is seeking
information from the Software Industry on the "Draft Documents"

pharmacy management component which includes a standardized
inventory management module; and, (2) An Electronic Medication
Administration Record (eMAR) for the management of electronic
documentation.

Respondents are requested to provide their comments, concerns
and, where applicable, alternative recommendations regarding how
the requirements or objectives described in this RFI could be
