RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Health Services Director, a Purchase Order with Roche Diagnostics Corporation., in an amount not to exceed $3,750,000 for the purchase of reagents and supplies for the Clinical and Pathology Laboratory at the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Center, for the period from August 15, 2021 through August 14, 2026.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this action will result in expenditures of up to $3,750,000 over the 5 year term. Based on current utilization, the laboratory staff estimates 80% of the usage is COVID-related, with 20% related to HPV (human papillomavirus) and other laboratory testing. Funding of approximately $3,000,000 will come from American Rescue Plan funds and other COVID-19 funding sources, and $750,000 will be funded by Hospital Enterprise I revenues.








BACKGROUND:

The CCRMC Clinical and Pathology Laboratory selected Roche as they are the only ones that can provide the reagents and supplies needed for the Cobas6800 in performing tests such as HPV, COVID-19, and other tests. These factors are required as it allows the system to run 864 results from an 8 hour shift and up to 1440 results in 24 hours. The system allows for 8 hours of walkaway time with 3 user interactions run time which allows the scientists to run more tests.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this purchase order is not approved, the CCRMC Clinical Laboratory will not be able to perform the specific patient testing that utilizes these supplies for HPV, COVID-19, and other tests, thus impacting patient safety and health.
