The primary point of contact for inquiries is Phoun Khamsaysouk, Contracting Authority, reachable via PPHS.Procurement@gov.ab.ca. The solution must be delivered as a cloud-based SaaS platform capable of integrating with existing provincial health systems and supporting ongoing operational needs without disruptions.
