About this opportunity
The Department of State seeks health and life insurance coverage for 234 locally employed staff at the U.S. Embassy in Tirana, Albania, with proposals due June 23, 2026 at 4:30 p.m. local time. This is a fixed-price procurement with no set-aside, to be awarded to the lowest-priced, technically acceptable, responsible offeror without discussions unless companies fall within the competitive range.
Place of performance is Tirana, Albania. The NAICS code is 524114, Direct Health and Medical Insurance Carriers; PSC is G007, Social–Government Health Insurance Programs.
Health insurance must cover hospitalization and emergency services at 100%, outpatient services at 80%, prescription drugs at 80%, dental care at 80% with an annual maximum of $3,200, optical care at 80%, mental health services at 50%, and catastrophic coverage of ALL 3,652,000 per covered individual per contract year. Group life insurance must provide 24 times monthly basic salary for natural death and 30 times for accidental death, with specified exclusions. Out-of-country medical treatment is covered at in-country terms and limits subject to reasonable and customary cost standards; emergency medical transportation for out-of-country treatment is not covered. The Government pays 90 percent of health insurance premiums with employees contributing 10 percent; life insurance is employer-paid at 100 percent.
The contract runs from August 1, 2026 through a base year plus four one-year options and a potential six-month extension. Proposals must be in English, submitted via PDF (maximum 70 MB) to TiranaHealthIS@state.gov, and include SF-33 Section B pricing schedules, IRS Form W-14, and proof of insurance licensing or authorization by the Albanian government or equivalent. The mandatory pre-proposal conference is May 20, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. at the Embassy; prospective offerors must contact Saimira Haxhi by May 19, 2026 at 13:00 local time for building entry. Amendment 0002 issued June 16 extended the due date and rescinded Defense Base Act insurance requirements previously mandated in Amendment 0001. Offerors must acknowledge receipt of Amendment 0002 prior to submission.
