RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Department, to execute (1) a Purchase Order with CDW Government, LLC, a limited liability company, in an amount not to exceed $71,193 and (2) the Master Subscriber Agreement with TigerText, Inc., for the renewal of the County’s TigerText software license and support and maintenance services for the period March 26, 2018 through March 25, 2019.

FISCAL IMPACT:

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

BACKGROUND:

TigerText Secure Messaging system provides a HIPAA-compliant solution for two-way communication between providers, nurses and staff for requesting information, providing direction, sending test results, and asking questions. The issuance of the purchase order and the execution of the master subscriber agreement extends the messaging services and support through March, 25, 2019.

The master subscriber agreement and the TigerText End User License Agreement (EULA) requires the County to indemnify TigerText with respect to third party claims resulting from the County’s use of the software. The EULA limits TigerText’s liability to the County to $100 in damages.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to renew this application could compromise HIPAA compliance and security in the secure messaging application.
