BACKGROUND:
San Mateo Medical Center (SMMC) has a continuing need for courier and delivery services to move supplies, lab specimens, and deposits to and from its offsite clinics. In addition to SMMC, two more County Health divisions, Aging & Disability Services (ADS) and Public Health Policy & Planning (PHPP), also have a need for courier and delivery services to support their operations throughout the County.
DISCUSSION:
In February 2025, SMMC completed a Request for Proposals for courier and delivery services. UltraEx, LLC was chosen based on their efficient routing solutions as well as being the most cost-effective. UltraEx, LLC will provide the County with daily prescheduled courier and delivery services of medical supplies between SMMC and its clinics in order to support uninterrupted operations as well as on-demand services not prescheduled and will invoice the County as services are rendered.
The resolution contains the County's standard provisions allowing amendment of the County fiscal obligations by a maximum of $25,000 (in aggregate).
It is anticipated that SMMC's delivery needs will be met 98% of the time.
The County Attorney has reviewed and approved the resolution and agreement as to form.
