RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Health Services Director, an amendment to Purchase Order # F03368 with Depuy Synthes Products, Inc., to increase the payment limit by $600,000 to a new payment limit of $1,050,000 for the purchase of implants and orthopedic supplies and devices for the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC), with no change in the original term of April 1, 2016 through March 31, 2020.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funding is included in Hospital Enterprise Fund I.
BACKGROUND:
Depuy Synthes Products, Inc., has been providing implants and orthopedic supplies and devices for the CCRMC for more than ten years. CCRMC has experienced a great increase in both patient volume and in complex orthopedic surgeries which require very expensive implants and devices. Therefore, it is necessary to add money to the purchase order.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this purchase order amendment is not approved, the CCRMC will be unable to meet the needs of its orthopedic patients.
