Essential Skills The Solution Architect must demonstrate strong capability in: Stakeholder engagement Critical thinking Problem solving Communication and presentation Documentation and technical writing Project Background Information Clinical Incident Management System (CIMS) Project Clinical incident and complaints management are critical components of clinical governance. Currently Datix Web enables the Department of Health to monitor and manage patient safety including healthcare acquired infections, medication incidents, falls and clinical deterioration including mental health deterioration. All of these are critical mandatory components of Health Service Accreditation Scheme as required by the National Health Reform Agreement with the Commonwealth. WA Health has utilised the Datix Web patient safety application since 2014. The Datix CIMS and CFM modules are critical components of patient safety and clinical governance across the system. The CIMS Project will replace the existing Datix CIMS/CFM system with a contemporary, cloud?based patient safety and quality improvement application - DatixCloudIQ (DCIQ) - delivered under a Software?as?a?Service (SaaS) model by RLDatix. Geraldton Health Campus Redevelopment (GHCR) Project The GHCR Project represents a significant investment in strengthening health services across the Midwest region. The redevelopment will modernise and expand key clinical areas, including enhancements to the Emergency Department, a new intensive care unit, a new high dependency unit and a new integrated mental health service. These upgrades will deliver contemporary facilities that support improved patient experience, streamline service delivery, and enhance the long?term sustainability of healthcare provision in the region. To support the safe and effective activation of these new and upgraded facilities, our Program Delivery provides a coordinated and end?to?end framework spanning commissioning, transition, and handover into business?as?usual operations. We will work as an integrated extension of the program team, aligning to the Operational Commissioning Lead, the strategic delivery plan, and established governance structures to ensure transparency, timely decision?making, and clear communication throughout the transition period. A specialised project management team—experienced in hospital transition and commissioning, including mental health services—will support structured planning and execution. This includes close collaboration with WACHS ICT, HSS CHIIP, the Managing Contractor, and the WACHS Commissioning Team to validate ICT scope, leverage existing work, and develop an integrated implementation schedule that aligns clinical, ICT, infrastructure, and operational readiness. Additionally, the team will support the development of comprehensive service transition and contingency plans to ensure operational continuity, risk mitigation, and a smooth transition into the enhanced Geraldton Health Campus. Term: Initial term of 6 months, with the possibility of extension subject to budget availability. Engagement will be on a time and materials basis.
