RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Health Services Director, a Purchase Order with Aesculap Implant Systems, LLC, in an amount not to exceed $250,000 for the purchase of surgical and medical instruments, tags, cards, neurological implants, disposables and other medical products for the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC), for the period from February 1, 2019 through December 31, 2022.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funding is included in the Hospital Enterprise Fund I budget.
BACKGROUND:
Aesculap Implant Systems, LLC has provided surgical and medical instruments, central line tags and cards, neurological implants, disposables and other medical products to the CCRMC for more than fifteen years. Buying has increased as the population that CCRMC serves continues to rise, and CCRMCS needs to meet growing demand as well as meet State and Federal regulations.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this Purchase Order is not approved, then CCRMC will be unable to meet the needs of its surgical patients or meet the State regulatory requirements.
