RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Auditor-Controller to pay $82,967 to US Foods, Inc. for the purchase of various food categories, chemicals, paper products, kitchen supplies and equipment for Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) during the period of July 12, 2022, through December 29, 2022.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this amendment will result in expenditures of up to $82,967 and is entirely funded through the Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues.
BACKGROUND:
US Foods, Inc. (dba US Foodservice, Inc.) has been CCRMC’s primary food and nutrition distributor for the past year and has done an excellent job in offering a variety of food options at a lower price than our previous vendor, Sysco San Francisco, Inc. The Nutrition Department recently transitioned from utilizing Food Service Partners to preparing food in house. Making this transition was imperative for improving patient food quality and standards, which has also increased our need to rely on US Foods, Inc. for most of our product needs.
