RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Department, to execute a Purchase Order with AGFA Healthcare Corporation, in an amount not to exceed $312,735, for (1) the Circles of Care Service Maintenance Agreement, (2) the Maintenance Price and Inventory Summary, and (3) Terms and Conditions for the period of April 1, 2017 through March 31, 2018.

FISCAL IMPACT:

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

BACKGROUND:

Health Services uses the AGFA Circles of Care software for necessary service and maintenance support to the cardiology and diagnostic imaging departments’ electronic imaging systems, at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Health Centers (CCRMC and Health Centers). Currently CCRMC and Health Centers utilize the AGFA Impax system for all diagnostic and cardiology images. The system provides high quality imaging for patients, and continuous image availability to the caregivers. Sustaining this availability requires a maintenance and support agreement with the vendor. Without this renewal, CCRMC and Health Centers will no longer receive critical software updates or vendor support in the event of a system failure.

The Terms and Conditions provide that the County will indemnify the Contractor for loss and damage related to County’s performance of the Agreement, and for any damage and costs arising from an infringement claim by a third party related to modifications to the software by County.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this Purchase Order renewal is not approved, image availability will be limited or not available, and patient care would be severely jeopardized in the event of a system failure.
