RECOMMENDATION(S):
Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Department, to execute a Purchase Order with Med One Capital Funding, LLC in an amount not to exceed $150,000 for continued rental of four scrub dispensing machines for the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC), from the period from August 1, 2017 through July 31, 2020.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funding is included in the Hospital Enterprise Fund I budget.
BACKGROUND:
For the past three years CCRMC has rented four scrub machines from this vendor. Two are located in the Operating Room and two in Labor and Delivery. This enables the staff to access clean and sanitary scrubs when needed, and reduces the loss of scrubs from the hospital.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this purchase order is not approved, the CCRMC will have to have the machines removed and return to a less productive way of managing scrubs. This would also impact the sanitation of the scrubs because staff would start taking them home to clean, or fail to put them where they belong for cleaning.
