This document is a summary of amendment changes to the First Amended Request for Proposals No. 25-14331-001 issued by the Employees Retirement System of Texas for Group Term Life Insurance and Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance Services. The amendment was effective March 3, 2026, and modified multiple sections of the RFP including the schedule of the RFP process, signature pages, and performance guarantee appendices. The changes primarily involved updating the amended date in Section I.B.1 (Schedule of RFP Process) and next to Appendices F-1 and F-2 in Section XIII (List of Appendices), and adding an acknowledgement of receipt of amendment to the signature page (Appendix A).

The substantive modifications to the performance guarantees appendices included deletion of the first six pages of Appendix F-1 (Performance Guarantees for Implementation Period) to eliminate duplicate performance guarantees, along with updated RFP section references for Performance Guarantees Nos. 8, 9, and 10. For Appendix F-2 (Performance Guarantees for Contract Service Period), RFP section references were updated for Performance Guarantees Nos. 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 25. These changes clarified and standardized the performance requirements and contractual references for bidders responding to the Group Term Life and Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance Services RFP.
