Contracting Opportunities

Message from 

the Director

Debbie Ridgely

OSDBU Director

The calendar tells us that it is spring and the 

trees and flowers are in bloom. So are the outreach 

opportunities that the HHS OSDBU will be offering. 

On April 13, 2011, HHS will be in Atlanta, GA, with 

our partner the General Services Administration for 

“Getting Back to Business” Industry Day. As part of the 

Small Business Jobs Act of 2010, this outreach event 

is supported by the White House. The session will 

feature training and one-on-one meetings for the 

small business community. Our second White House 

event will be a “Marketplace” held on June 1, 2011, 

in Raleigh, NC with our partner the Environmental 

Protection Agency. Small business vendors will 

have the opportunity to market their products and 

services to the Government representatives. 

In this issue we feature CORE Solutions, a 

successful Small Disadvantaged Business, founded 

in 1999. The vision of the Substance Abuse and 

Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) 

inspired CORE to create an innovative product that 

provides real time data from millions of health care 

clients in three states. Their product is the market 

leader in Electronic Health Records (EHR). 

Be sure to come visit us at the 21st. Annual OSDBU 

Directors’ Conference on April 21, 2011, at Dulles 

Expo Center. It is one of the best “one-stop” shopping 

events all year. HHS will also be at several upcoming 

Veteran’s conferences, as well as, GSA’s Training 

Conference and Expo in San Diego and the US Pan 

Asian American Chamber of Commerce Conference 

in Los Angeles. 

SAMSHA Inspires CORE to 

Develop a Unique Solution 

in Electronic Health Records

T

he Substance Abuse and Mental 

Health Services Administration’s 

(SAMSHA) vision regarding the 

future of health care inspired Ravi 

Ganesan, President of Core Solutions, Inc. 

(CORE), to create an innovative product 

which is now providing real time data from 

millions of health care clients in three states. 

The data is then consolidated and sent to 

SAMSHA. Dr. H. Westley Clark, SAMSHA 

Director of the Center for Substance Abuse 

Treatment, U.S. Department of Health and 

Human Services, shared his vision on the 

future of health care in an informal meeting which included Anne Herron, SAMSHA 

Director of Division of State and Community 

Assistance and other staff members. This informal conversational exchange helped CORE 

understand the needs at the federal, state and 

county level. “Dr. Clark galvanized us,” said 

Ganesan. “When someone is passionate, it 

rubs off on you. You feel the need to do something. He challenged us to develop new solutions. As a result, we created and implemented 

a new product which is the market leader in 

Electronic Health Records (EHR). ” 

The CORE Cx360 is the first (and perhaps 

only) cross agency case management system 

that includes an EHR in the market today. 

The product is unique in that it provides the 

ability for any county, state or federal agency 

to collect and manage case data in all areas of 

healthcare. Furthermore it allows this data to 

move, intact and in real time, to other agencies. 

“For example, if a child is being serviced in a 

“Birth to 3” program and also interacting with 

the health department, the education department and the welfare department – a single 

record for that child is created and updated 

across all agencies. Data collection efforts (and 

potential errors) are minimized, thereby reducing costs and staff time while vastly improving 

outcomes,” explained Ganesan. “All agencies 

working with that child and their family have 

complete and current data that provide for a 

more comprehensive and effective continuum 

of care while controlling costs,” he added.

SAMSHA Inspires CORE 

to Develop a Unique 

Solution in Electronic 

Health Records (cont.)

Working regularly with SAMSHSA staff 

has assisted CORE in anticipating what needs 

are not being met. “As a small business, our 

advantage is that we can develop and implement new products quickly to meet market 

needs,” stated Ganesan.

“We look forward to continued growth as we 

enhance the Cx360 system. We are particularly 

appreciative of the advice we’ve received over 

the last two years from management and staff 

at SAMSHSA and in particular Dr. Westley 

Clark and Ms. Anne Herron,” Ganesan added. 

Philadelphia Business Magazine recognized 

CORE as one of Philadelphia’s fasting growing 

privately held corporations in 2010. The company also caught the interest of Ben Franklin 

Technology Partners of Southeastern Pennsylvania, a national, award winning model for 

technology innovation invested in innovative 

enterprises. They have provided financial backing to CORE. 

Founded in 1999, Core Solutions, Inc. 

(CORE) is a market leader in providing electronic health records (EHR) technology for 

the behavioral healthcare and human services industries. Headquartered outside of 

Philadelphia, CORE offers a comprehensive 

enterprise suite designed to fit the needs of 

its clients and brings providers the training, 

services, and expertise, which are a result of 

more than ten years of experience. The company’s solutions securely automate the collection, distribution, processing, reporting, and 

analysis of administrative, financial, and clinical client data for internal staff and external 

stakeholders. CORE is a Small & Disadvantaged Business. For more information visit:

HHS Day at the Seventh National 

Small Business Federal Contracting 

Week is Successful

T

he U.S. Department of Health & 

Human Services (HHS) was spotlighted March 31, 2011 as part of 

the Seventh National Small Business 

Federal Contracting Week in Washington, 

D.C. The all day event was sponsored by the 

U.S. Women’s Chamber of Commerce and 

the National Association of Small Business 

Contractors. 

Debbie Ridgely, Director of the HHS Office 

of Small & Disadvantaged Business Utilization 

Office (OSDBU) presented an overview of the 

Department and highlighted women-owned 

business opportunities with HHS to several 

hundred women-owned business owners.

As part of the event, HHS staff members 

provided tips on how to market to HHS. In 

addition, they explained the HHS strategic 

sourcing initiative, which includes the new 

Women-Owned Small Business Federal Contracting set-aside program. 

Navigating the federal contracting waters 

can be difficult for small businesses, so HHS 

staff outlined Simplified Acquisition opportunities and furnished insights on how to establish successful relationships with prime contractors. The afternoon afforded attendees the 

opportunity to have one-on-one meetings with 

agency and prime contractor representatives.
