RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent on behalf of the Health Services Department, to execute a Purchase Order to Dimension Data in the amount of $191,025 for annual maintenance support of data storage and backup for the period from July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017.

FISCAL IMPACT:

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

BACKGROUND:

The Contra Costa Health Services Department uses the EMC Storage and Avamar backup system which holds data for the Epic Electronic Health Records (EHR) System. To successfully continue backing up and storing Epic data we are required to renew our annual maintenance support.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to renew maintenance support would directly impact patient care.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
