RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute on behalf of the Health Services Director, an amendment to Purchase Order #23128 with Qiagen, LLC to extend the term through June 30, 2023 with no change to the payment limit of $500,000 to procure tuberculosis diagnostic screening tests and molecular extraction kits for the Contra Costa Public Health Laboratory.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this purchase order amendment will result in expenditures of up to $500,000 and will be funded through the Enterprise Fund I Revenues.

BACKGROUND:

This Board Order would extend expiration of the Purchase Order for Qiagen, LLC laboratory supplies purchased by the Contra Costa Public Health Laboratory.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Contra Costa Public Health Laboratory distributes Qiagen’s Quantiferon tuberculosis-screening collection tubes to Contra Costa County Health Services’ clinics for routine screening for tuberculosis infection in patients. Contra Costa Public Health Laboratory additionally screens these patient specimens using Qiagen diagnostic test kits. Lastly, Qiagen provides molecular kits to aid in the detection of other pathogenic infectious organisms in patient samples.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this request is not approved, the Contra Costa Public Health Laboratory would be unable to efficiently purchase tuberculosis-screening supplies and delays in testing could occur.
