RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #73-736 with Mesa Laboratories, Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $524,306, to provide Mesa Lab’s hosted temperature monitoring system including software, services, maintenance and support to Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) for equipment, room, temperature and humidity monitoring for the period from September 20, 2022 through September 19, 2025.






RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D)

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $524,306 over a 3-year period and will be funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

This contract meets the needs of the County by providing a temperature and humidity monitoring system, with viewpoint sensors used throughout the County to monitor laboratory equipment, all medication refrigerators, and freezers, as well as monitoring rooms that store medication. Agencies such as the California Board of Pharmacy, the Joint Commission (Hospital Accreditation), and California Department of Public Health require continuous digital temperature logging for refrigeration, laboratory storage, and room temperatures where medications are stored. The County uses this system to comply with CCRMC’s Vaccine for Children program, and it is a pharmacy requirement for the storage of medications.  
  
In 2018, CCRMC began using this vendor, chosen as an industry standard, as they continue the upgrade of their proprietary systems and equipment to meet the ever-changing requirements of the various agencies listed above.  
  
Approval of this contract #76-736 allows the contractor to provide services through September 19, 2025. Under this contract, the contractor’s liability under the contract is limited to the amounts paid by the County in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to an applicable claim.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, CCRMC will not have a system in place that monitors the temperature and humidity in rooms and other equipment. This would have detrimental effects on patient care.
