Indefinite Delivery Contract 19CA5226D0005

The Canada Life Assurance Company has been awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract by the U.S. Department of State, funded through the U.S. Embassy Ottawa, to provide comprehensive medical, life, and disability insurance services for locally hired employees at U.S. diplomatic facilities throughout Canada. The contract, valued at $13.42 million with an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2027, was awarded on April 1, 2026, and carries no set-aside designations. The prime contractor, operating from its principal location in Ottawa, Ontario, will deliver insurance coverage including medical benefits, life insurance policies, and disability benefit services to support U.S. diplomatic operations across the region. The contract utilizes a fixed-price with economic price adjustment pricing structure, enabling cost adjustments while maintaining predictable baseline pricing for the government.

Under this Indefinite Delivery Contract, both the Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs and the Bureau of Consular Affairs are authorized to issue delivery order task orders for required insurance services throughout the contract period. Historical performance under the predecessor contract demonstrates the contractor's capability to manage delivery orders ranging from approximately $11,000 to over $1.3 million, with consistent performance centered at the contractor's Ottawa facility. The Canada Life Assurance Company maintains an exclusive relationship as the sole provider of these specialized insurance services for diplomatic personnel in Canada, performing as the prime contractor without identified subcontractors. This contracting vehicle ensures continuity of benefits administration and coverage maintenance for locally hired staff at multiple U.S. diplomatic locations throughout Canada.
