Funding: County/Medical Services Enterprise Fund Subject: Food consultation service for County Hospital, including recipe services, menu planning, bulk food procurement, and staff training. Mannings, Inc. has provided food consultation service for the County Hospital for several years. Mannings, Inc. is a specialist in the field of bulk food service and provides a comprehensive, efficient service to the Health Services Department at low cost. The attached contract term is for three years commencing August 1, 1979 and terminating July 31, 1982. The payment amounts due under the contract are $750 monthly from August 1, 1979 through January, 31, 1980 (same rate as previous year), $800 monthly from February 1, 1980 through July 31, 1980, with subsequent monthly rate increases of $50 on August 1, 1980 and August 1, 1981, representing a series of rate increases ranging from 6.67 to 5.97 over the three-year period. Such a long-term contract is recommended to cut down on administrative costs and is justi- fied by the moderate rate increases. Should annual funding for the contract not continue the full three years, the contract can be terminated on 30 days notice. The retoactivity of this contract is explained by the attached 12/14/79 memo. Prior to August 1979, Mr. M. S. P. Fernandez, upon the direction of the acting Health Services Administrative Officer, authorized the contractor to continue providing the needed services based on an oral agreement made with the contractor. Consequently, I recommend that these employee actions be ratified by the Board of Supervisors. The contract has been approved as to form by the County Counsel's Office and has been executed by the Contractor. I, therefore, recommend that this contract be approved and submitted to the Board at their next meeting on May 13, 1980. SK:dg cc: M. S. P.

Leff, M.D. From: Health Service d n s x for Subject: RETROACTIVITY MEMO FOR MANNING'S By: Charles A Jr. FOOD SERVICE CONTRACT #26-021-4 Acting lth Services Administrative Officer The purpose of this memorandum is to request retroactive approval concerning Manning's Food Service contract #26-021-4. The following information provides a background creating the necessity for this request. 1. Mannings Incorporated negotiated a fee increase for their services from $9,000 to '$10,800 for fiscal year 1978-79. In view of Proposition 13, this negotiated increase was withdrawn by Mannings with an oral stipulation for an annual renewal. The unforeseen delay came about from an oversight by the Food Service Manager and Health Services Administrator to process renewal of the contract. In following past practice, the vendor, Mannings Incorporated, and/or contracts . administration normally provided courtesy notification to Food Services when- ever the contract was due to expire and required renewal. None was re ceived on this contract. 2. Inasmuch as', the service had been provided through this date and since it is a very necessary service, we are requesting approval of this contract retro- active to August 1, 1979 through February 1, 1980 at the rate of $750 per month for a total of $4,500 for this period. We concur with the requested increase on,payment of $800 per month through August 1, 1980, amounting to' $4,800. We.further agree to .the stipulated increase at $850 per month for a total of $10,200 from August 1, 1980 through August 1, 1981; and $900 per month ($10;800) from- August. l, 1981 through August 1, 1982: The total amount for this contract is $30,300 for a period of three (3) years. 3_. The oral stipulation mentioned in paragraph 1 above was mistakenly assumed by Mannings as license to continue the contract without requirement of another resolution approved by the Board of Supervisors. This became more apparent When the Regional Vice President for Mannings was apprised of the need for a new contract.- I 4. Mr. M.S.P. Fernandez, Health'Services Administrator, under the Acting Health Services Administrative Officer, had apparent authority to negotiate this . contract. Food Service department comes under the administrative responsi- bility of Mr. Fernandez. Future processing for approval of this contract will be monitored very closely to preclude repetition of this untimely delay.
