RECOMMENDATION(S):
Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Department, to execute a blanket Purchase Order with Tiernan-Leino Dental Laboratory, in the amount of $145,000 to purchase dental prosthetics for dentures and partials, and to purchase other dental laboratory supplies for the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers (CCHC), for the period July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funding is included in the Hospital Enterprise Find I Budget.
BACKGROUND:
CCRMC and CCHC have used Tiernan-Leino Dental Laboratory for many years. This vendor provides excellent dentures and partials and also gives a discount on pricing, which saves the county money each year.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this Purchase Order is not approved, CCRMC and CCHC will not be able to provide the best care possible for our dental patients.
