RECOMMENDED ACTION
Award a contract to ZOLL Medical Corporation, for the purchase of 10
manual defibrillators based on the City of Newport Beach contract in
the amount of $258,550.72.
DISCUSSION
The Santa Ana Fire Department's Emergency Medical Services (EMS) uses
defibrillators in the performance of its duties. The Orange County EMS
regulates the paramedic services for Orange County, and has established
new standards for EKG testing in the field. As such, the Fire
Department is replacing its 10 defibrillators. The ZOLL biphasic 12-
lead defibrillator is responsive to the Fire Department and the Fire
Authority standards and protocols. The ZOLL model meets the City's
need, and staff recommends the purchase of the new ZOLL 12-lead
defibrillators.
Santa Ana City Ordinance No. NS-2312 authorizes the City to purchase
against contracts from any public agency utilizing a competitive bid
process. The City of Newport Beach contract with ZOLL Medical
Corporation for 12-lead defibrillators was awarded as a result of open,
competitive bidding, and meets the City's requirements.
