By GlobalData“This achievement reflects Fujifilm’s ongoing commitment to developing the highest quality, innovative digital radiography technology for every application.”
Fujifilm received the latest contract following a two-year evaluation and comparison period with various other competitive DR technologies.
Before selecting Fujifilm’s solution, the US Navy and DLA performed a comprehensive evaluation of each manufacturer’s system technology, adaptability, service support infrastructure, as well as cybersecurity compliance.
The company had earlier won several other contracts for its medical imaging solutions and enterprise imaging from various branches of the US federal government.
In 2017, the company secured a ten-year Department of Defense (DoD) ‘Digital Imaging Network-PACS (DIN-PACS) IV’ contract. It also received a ten-year ‘Joint DLA/VA Radiology and Imaging Systems’ contract.
