Good afternoon Board Members –
Many of you have received questions from businesses that are interested in offering supplies for the
response to COVID-19 whether that is businesses already producing supplies or manufacturers
interested in retooling to meet the needs for medical supplies. The State announced a new website
yesterday and established a new process for interested vendors. It also includes standards for
production, which has been a big question so far.
Please see the details in the email below from GoBIZ.
Thanks.
Casey

Hello,
On behalf of the GO-Biz team, thank you for your company’s offer to help ensure critical products are available for our first responders, essential workers, and fellow
Californians. Manufactures like yourself are helping to make a difference during this pandemic and we appreciate your ability to help us meet this moment.
GO-Biz is working hand in hand with the California Office of Emergency Services (CalOES) to respond to the many offers of assistance we’ve received from the business
community. We recently announced a new website (https://covid19supplies.ca.gov/) to receive the intake of medical supply contributions. Please visit the site and input the
resources you have to contribute, either for donation or purchase, to support California’s response to COVID-19. Among other important qualifiers, the websiteincludes the
California Department of Public Health's (CDPH) specifications for medical products the state can procure.
Once you enter information into the new website (https://covid19supplies.ca.gov/), officials will follow-up with you directly if we can make effective use of your contribution
or manufacturing offer. If you have already inputted your information, thank you for doing so.
Additionally, as a helpful resource, we would liketo share the details from last week’s webinar, "Repurposing Your Business: Joining the fight Against COVID-19."The video is a
recording of the webinar where you can learn more about how companies like yours can join the fight against COVID-19.
