RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Department, to execute a Purchase Order with Ortho Clinic Diagnostics Inc., in the amount of $124,192 for the purchase of an Ortho Vision Analyzer used in the Clinical Laboratory at the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) for the period July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% funding is included in the Hospital Enterprise Fund I Budget.

BACKGROUND:

Ortho Clinic Diagnostics, Inc. has the reagents and ID-Micro Typing system cards that can only be used on the Johnson & Johnson centrifuges and incubators. These products identify blood types and cross-match units of blood for transfusion and other surgical procedures. Upgrading to automation can cut down work up to half the time.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this Purchase Order is not approved, the CCRMC Clinical Laboratory will not be able to perform testing.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
