RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Health Services Director, a Purchase Order with Depuy Synthes Sales, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $1,750,000 for the purchase of instruments and supplies for the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC), for the period from April 1, 2020 through March 31, 2024.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funding is included in the Hospital Enterprise Fund I budget.
BACKGROUND:
Depuy Synthes Sales, Inc. provides instruments, implants, devices and supplies for the Orthopedic Surgery Unit to perform special procedures and operations at CCRMC. Depuy Synthes Sales, Inc., has been a reliable source of supplies for the Operating Room (OR). The OR requires a fast and steady replenishment of implants that Depuy Synthes Sales, Inc., can provide.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to approve this Purchase Order will result in increased expense to the Department. CCRMC is able to take advantage of Depuy’s status as a Vizient vendor, which enables the Department to obtain competitive pricing through the Vizient Group Purchasing contract.
