This document is Attachment B: Mandatory Responsive Requirements for an Invitation to Bid (ITB No. 27-84131514-ITB) issued by the Florida Department of Management Services to establish a contract for Government Crime Insurance. The ITB seeks to replace the current policy through a single award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder in accordance with Florida Statutes sections 287.057(1) and 287.022. The procurement officer is Jill Soderberg, and all submissions must be made through the MyFloridaMarketPlace Sourcing Event via the SAP Business Network, with vendors required to monitor the Vendor Information Portal (VIP) throughout the procurement process.

Bidders must certify compliance with numerous mandatory responsive requirements as a condition of bid acceptance, including verification of authorized signatory status, absence from various vendor lists (Suspended, Convicted, Discriminatory, Antitrust Violator, and Forced Vendor Lists), compliance with Florida disclosure requirements, and non-involvement in scrutinized company activities related to Sudan, Iran, Israel boycotts, Cuba, or Syria. For services valued at $1 million or more, bidders must verify they are not on the State Board of Administration's Scrutinized List of Prohibited Companies. Additionally, bidders must demonstrate current Florida Department of State corporate registration or provide exemption documentation, maintain current insurance licenses and certificates of authority, provide evidence of ten years of experience in government crime insurance placement and account management, and submit completed attachments including price sheets, vendor certification forms, foreign country of concern attestations, broker information, surplus line placement acknowledgements, and quotation documentation. Bidders must acknowledge their ongoing duty to update the procurement officer of any changes affecting these certifications.
