RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Health Services Director, a purchase order with GE Medical Systems, Ultrasound & Primary Diagnostics, LLC, in the amount not to exceed $164,094 for the purchase of the LOGIQ E10 Ultrasound system to replace a unit that is at “end of life” at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC).

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% funded by the Hospital Enterprise Fund I.

BACKGROUND:

This new ultrasound unit/system will replace an existing unit that the manufacturer has indicated/deemed “End of Life”. As equipment ages and technology advances, many parts and components contained in older systems are no longer available or difficult to obtain timely. Ultrasound services are an important part of the overall Diagnostic Imaging Services. The purchase of this new LOGIQ E 10 system will put CCRMC into a higher level platform for ultrasound exams/procedures.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this purchase order is not approved, the Diagnostic Imaging Unit at CCRMC would be unable to provide optimum services for its patients and would have to contend with frequent breakdowns and waits for repairs and parts.
