ATTACHMENT B - Submit Certificate of Insurance.pdf

This is a Certificate of Insurance attachment document for a California state and local contract opportunity for Software - Email Security - Proofpoint (Brand Only), Contract Number 1092847. The attachment establishes the insurance documentation requirements that bidders and contractors must submit as part of their proposal response. The document functions as a template or instruction set for prospective vendors to provide proof of adequate insurance coverage prior to contract award and during contract execution. While specific coverage amounts, policy types, and effective dates would be detailed within the complete bidding documents, this attachment serves as the mechanism for demonstrating financial responsibility and risk mitigation capabilities required by the procuring agency.

The certificate of insurance requirement is a standard protective measure implemented by California government entities to ensure that vendors possess adequate liability coverage and bonding. Submission of this documentation is typically a prerequisite to contract award and must remain current throughout the contract term. The specific insurance requirements—including general liability, professional liability, cyber liability, and any other coverages relevant to email security software provision—would be outlined in the main solicitation documents. Contractors are obligated to maintain continuous coverage and provide updated certificates upon request or upon policy renewal to protect the state from potential claims arising from service delivery failures or data breaches.
