The Honolulu based Rehabilitation Hospital of the Pacific (REHAB) has signed a five-year, $10 million, ITO contract with Affiliated Computer Services (ACS). Since 2002, ACS has been providing a full range of IT application and technology infrastructure services. REHAB is the only acute care medical rehabilitation organisation serving both Hawaii and the Pacific.

"ACS enables us to provide high quality IT services at predictable costs," said Clair Jones, chief executive officer for REHAB. "Extending our long-standing relationship with ACS strengthens our ability to provide outstanding care and service to the community. Our plans include installation of a new Electronic Medical Record system and the ACS team will be an integral part of this key initiative."

Under the renewed contract, ACS will continue to provide full IT services, including mid-range and server management, network management, applications management, service desk, and desktop management. ACS will also continue functioning in the CIO role for REHAB.
