About this file
This is an Insurance Requirements document issued by the City of Palo Alto establishing mandatory coverage specifications for contractors providing upfitting services for two Rivian R1S police patrol vehicles. The City requires contractors to obtain and maintain comprehensive insurance coverage throughout the entire contract term at their sole expense, with all policies issued by carriers holding an AM Best's Key Rating of A-:VII or higher and authorized to conduct business in California. Required coverage includes Workers' Compensation at statutory limits, Employer's Liability at statutory limits, General Liability with minimum limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $1,000,000 aggregate (including bodily injury, property damage, contractual liability, and fire legal liability), Automobile Liability with minimum limits of $1,000,000 per person, $1,000,000 per occurrence, and $1,000,000 combined for bodily injury and property damage, and Professional Liability/Errors and Omissions coverage with $1,000,000 in all damages coverage when applicable. The City of Palo Alto must be named as an additional insured on all policies except Workers' Compensation, Employer's Liability, and Professional Liability insurance.
Contractors must submit certificates of insurance evidencing all required coverage to purchasingsupport@cityofpaloalto.org prior to contract award. Insurance policies must include contractual liability endorsements covering the contractor's indemnification obligations to the City. Additional insured endorsements must specify that the City's insurance is primary with respect to claims arising from contractor operations and include cross-liability provisions ensuring that naming multiple insureds does not increase the insurer's total liability. Contractors must provide the City with thirty days' written notice of policy cancellation for any reason other than non-payment of premium, and ten days' written notice for cancellations due to premium non-payment. Award of the contract is contingent upon full compliance with these insurance requirements.
