With the prior approval of CDPHE, the WCDPHE plans to purchase two additional vaccine refrigerators for the storage of all vaccines that are administered at the Health Department. As a condition of reimbursement for this equipment purchase that totals $11,919, WCDPHE is required to sign an acknowledgment form, Attachment A, that indicates what WCDPHE will agree and abide by the requirements outlined in the C0V-IMM R3 equipment provision of the statement of work for these refrigerators. What options exist for the Board? (include consequences, impacts, costs, etc. of options): Signing this Attachment A will allow WCDPHE to receive reimbursement in the amount of $11,919 from CDPHE for this pre -authorized equipment purchase. If the Board does not agree to have the Chair sign this document, WCDPHE will not be able to receive reimbursement for this expenditure and the entire amount of $11,919 will become a county -funded expenditure if we continue with this purchase.

Updated 07/23/2021 Attachment A Please enter the following information: Equipment Approval for Funding Source Please enter the funding source (e.g. ELC#2, IMM#4) IMM3 Subrecipient: Please enter agency name Weld County Dept of Public Health & Enviro Agreement number: Please enter the PO# 202100010318 Approval Date Date the Subrecepient is approved to purchase 318/2023 Total Cost of Purchase $12,300.00 The Subrecipient has requested the purchase/lease of the capital equipment documented in the attached quote with the following justification: List justification: This relates to the equipment portion of our work plan. Specifically these vaccine storage units will help ensure that we have the needed/required storage for our immunization program, and provide the capacity and back units needed in order to be better prepared for emergencies and surge events. Weld needs additional units to store COVID vaccine for the CDPHE vans operating in our region; to support vaccine operation for Sunrise (FQHC); and to store COVID vaccine for local hospitals and other vaccine providers. Weld purchased two larger units last year to replace older refrigerators at the North and South clinic locations. This request is to purchase additional units for our vaccine preparation room, and one for our off -site vaccine storage site for emergency backup and storage surge events. These last two purchases will fully update our storage units, ensuring we have the total overall storage capacity we believe we need, and provide storage capacity in the areas where it is most needed for daily operations.. Upon review, the request has been determined to be: Allowable: Please Explain According to CDC Guidelines IMM Funds can be used to purchase any equipment needed to store vaccines Allocable: Please Explain Weld County has only used 58% of IMM3 Funds ($331,720.00) and has not spent any IMM4 funds to date. There are ample funds available for this purchase. Reasonable: Please Explain Weld County received 4 bids for storage units. They will proceed with the 2nd lowest bid from LABRepCO. Previously purchased larger vaccine storage units from LABRepCO which work well. The Maintenance Vendor can support them and Weld County Staff understand how to operate the equipment. Necessary: Please Explain Without these storage units, we may be in a position in the future, where we are unable to support vaccine campaign responses from CDPHE or local partners. We have units that are at the end stage of their performance life and this is the best available funding source for us right now.
