RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Department, to execute a blanket Purchase Order with Ortho Clinical Diagnostic, Inc., in the amount of $119,100 for an Pro-Vue Analyzer used at the Clinical Laboratory of the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers, for the period July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

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

BACKGROUND:

Ortho Clinical Diagnostic, 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 patient testing.
