RECOMMENDATION(S):
Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Department, to execute a purchase order with Philips Healthcare in an amount not to exceed $182,240 for a Philips Healthcare Service Agreement for the iE33 Ultrasound and Tee Probe systems at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers for the period from July 15, 2017 through July 14, 2021.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funding is included in the Enterprise Fund I budget.
BACKGROUND:
The Philips Service Agreement keeps the iE33 ultrasounds and probes in top condition to manufacturer’s specifications. They are currently serviced by Philips and this will provide CCRMC with the same standards of service and reliability, enabling the staff to provide the highest level of care to maternity patients.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this purchase order is not approved, CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Centers will not be able to provide authorized factory representatives to service the equipment.
