RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Health Services Director, a Purchase Order with US Foods, Inc. dba U.S. Foodservice, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $1,000,000 for the purchase of all food categories, chemicals, paper products, kitchen supplies and equipment for Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers, for the period from January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this purchase order will result in annual supplies expenditures of up to $1,000,000 and is 100% budgeted in the Hospital Enterprise Fund I budget.

BACKGROUND:

Advocating for our Department to change our primary vendor from Sysco to US Foods, Inc., as US Foods, Inc. offers more food options at a lesser price. This will help transition our patient food production from an outside vendor to internal production without any additional labor and will help increase patient satisfaction.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this purchase order is not approved, CCRMC will continue to use Sysco as our primary food vendor which has a daily delivery delay. CCRMC will have to continue purchasing daily patient meals from Food Service Partners.
