Health Department approves four‑year service agreement for Hologic Panther
Summary
The Health Department recommended and the board approved a four‑year service agreement with Hologic Sales and Service LLC for $104,400 to maintain the Panther instrument used in family planning, STI and community health clinic testing; staff said the longer term yields a roughly 10% discount.
Lee Barrier presented a four‑year maintenance and support agreement with Hologic Sales and Service LLC in the amount of $104,400 for the county's Panther instrument, which laboratory staff use for family planning, STI, and contracted community health clinic testing.
Barrier said historically the department used one‑year contracts but had moved to a four‑year agreement to secure a 10% discount. A board member asked whether that change yields savings; staff responded that the county would save about $3,000 per year by the fourth year of the agreement.
A motion to accept the quote was made, seconded and approved in a roll‑call vote; one member abstained.
