RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Health Services Director, an amendment to Purchase Order #F34660 with Biomerieux, Inc., to increase the payment limit by $99,000 to a new payment limit of $198,000, for reagents and supplies needed for the Vitek 2 for the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) Clinical Laboratory and Health Centers, with no change in the original term of January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2018.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% funded by the Hospital Enterprise Fund I.

BACKGROUND:

Biomerieux, Inc. supplies the reagents needed for the identification and sensitivities of pathogenic organisms from cultures of body fluids and blood to be tested on the Vitek 2, a microbial identification system. It is necessary to add funds due to increased utilization of the supplies provided by Biomerieux, Inc. under this purchase order.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this purchase order amendment is not approved, the CCRMC Clinical Laboratory cannot perform the needed tests required by the medical staff in order to proceed with patient treatments.
