RECOMMENDATION(S):
Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Director, to execute an amendment to Purchase Order #F03259 with Henry Schein, Inc., to add $200,000 to a new total not to exceed $900,000 for the purchase of dental supplies, equipment, instruments, and repairs at the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Health Centers with no change in the original term of January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2018.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funding is included in the Hospital Enterprise Fund I budget.
BACKGROUND:
The Dental Unit at CCRMC has used Henry Schein, Inc. for many years. Recently all the Purchase Orders for this vendor were combined into one, increasing the amount of money being used against it. In addition, the Dental Unit purchased a large quantity of new dental instruments, equipment, and supplies for the recent state survey.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this Change Order is not approved the CCRMC and Health Centers will be unable to meet the dental needs of its patients.
