About this file
The COST PROPOSAL.docx is a bidding document for the Nebraska Public Employees Retirement Systems (NPERS), detailing actuarial services procurement through the Nebraska Department of Administrative Services, State Purchasing Bureau. The contract seeks comprehensive actuarial consulting services for six retirement systems and one deferred compensation plan, covering approximately 180,000 plan members with $21 billion in assets. Services include annual valuations for multiple defined benefit and cash balance plans, GASB 67 and 68 reporting, projection reports, actuarial experience studies, and benefit adequacy studies. The initial contract term is three years, commencing July 1, 2025, with two optional three-year renewal periods, and requires approximately 15 in-person business days of meetings annually in Lincoln. The response deadline is March 21, 2025 at 2:00 PM Central Time.
The cost proposal structure allows bidders to provide hourly rates for different actuarial staff positions and fixed pricing for specific services across the initial contract term and optional renewal periods. All proposed costs are required to be all-inclusive, with no additional reimbursement for travel, meetings, or expenses. Mandatory vendor qualifications include having at least three public pension fund clients by December 31, 2024, five years of organizational experience, and a lead consultant with ten years of public pension fund actuarial consulting experience. Professional staff must have at least five years of actuarial science experience and appropriate credentials such as Fellow or Associate of Society of Actuaries. The lead consultant must be a member of the American Academy of Actuaries with legislative testimony experience. While no specific budget range is disclosed, the comprehensive scope suggests a substantial contract value managing significant retirement system assets.
