About this file

This is a Sample Insurance Requirements document for the City of Dallas, Department of Aviation, establishing mandatory insurance coverage standards for pre-qualified Architectural and Engineering consultants supporting aviation facility projects. The document specifies that final insurance coverage types and limits will be determined upon receipt of specific project scopes of work. Insurance requirements include Workers' Compensation with Employers Liability limits of $500,000 per occurrence; Business Automobile Liability with a combined single limit of $500,000 per occurrence for owned, hired, and non-owned vehicles; Commercial General Liability with minimum limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 general aggregate; and Professional Liability Insurance with minimum limits of $1,000,000 per claim and $1,000,000 annual aggregate. All insurance must be provided by State of Texas-approved companies and name the City of Dallas as an additional insured. Certificates of insurance must be delivered to both the Department of Aviation and the Director of the Office of Risk Management prior to contract payment authorization.

The document establishes that the City reserves the right to review and modify insurance requirements during the contract period based on changes in law or other relevant factors. Engineers may maintain reasonable deductibles and have the option to provide signed letters certifying non-applicability of certain coverage types if they have no employees, do not operate vehicles, or do not provide services at City facilities. For claims-made Professional Liability and Commercial General Liability policies, continuous coverage must be maintained for at least twenty-four months following contract completion and City acceptance. Subcontractors must maintain appropriate insurance types and limits consistent with industry standards and the work being performed, with the Engineer responsible for obtaining and monitoring all subcontractor certificates. The City's approval or failure to act regarding supplied insurance does not relieve the Engineer of full liability for damages, and the Engineer must defend and indemnify the City against claims arising from breach or negligent performance, with comparative fault apportioned under Texas law.
