RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Department, to execute (1) Master Agreement for Services with Brocade Communications Systems, Inc., and (2) Purchase Order with Optiv Security, Inc., in the amount of $52,034 for renewal of Brocade computer hardware support for the period of November 27, 2017 to November 26, 2018.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% Funding is included in the Hospital Enterprise Fund I Budget.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to maintain support for this equipment increases the risk of an unexpected failure, and possibly an extended outage. This could impact productivity at some locations, including patient care at the hospital and health clinic locations.

BACKGROUND:

Health Services uses Brocade hardware to handle all network traffic coming into the two data centers in Martinez and Pittsburg. This renewal for hardware support is for equipment which is also the infrastructure responsible for supporting over 50 other clinical and ancillary sites. Additionally, this hardware supports the 24-7 operations of the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center, and its Electronic Medical Records (EMR) system, EPIC.

Optiv is Brocade’s authorized third-party reseller. The master agreement for services requires the County to indemnify Brocade against claims arising out of the County’s breach of the agreement.
