RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Director, to execute a Purchase Order with Carefusion 303, Inc., in an amount of $370,787.52 for the replacement of the Model 8015, Becton Dickinson Alaris Point of Care Unit at the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC).
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funding is included in the Hospital Enterprise Fund I budget.
BACKGROUND:
CCRMC’s 8015 Point of Care Unit is the engine that powers and runs the infusion pumps, syringe pumps and patient controlled anesthesia. The current Unit has reached its end of service and needs replacement. The purchase of this equipment will ensure that CCRMC staff are using the most up to date Unit to continue with the quality of care we are providing to patients.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this Purchase Order is not approved, CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Centers will be unable to provide the safest, most reliable service to patients.
