The U.S. Embassy in Paris, Department of State, intends to issue a request for quotation for liability insurance covering about 230 U.S. Government leased and owned apartments in France for January 1 through December 31, 2027, with quotations due November 16, 2026 at 16:00 France time. The solicitation is not yet issued and will be posted on SAM.gov when available. The Set Aside line reads "No Set-Aside Used," and the notice states no sole-source or contract vehicle restriction.

Place of performance is Île-de-France, France. Offerors must be registered in SAM before submitting an offer, pursuant to FAR provision 52.2024-7, and must provide proof of registration, SF-1449, pricing, representations and certifications, and evidence of required French insurance licenses and permits, including ORIAS registration. The apartment list with locations and surface areas is a separate attachment released only by email to ParisContracting@state.gov after requesting companies are cleared by the Embassy Security Office.

Per the attachment summary, required coverage includes fire, explosion including bomb attack, water damage, storms, natural disasters, unlimited tenant and inhabitant risks, third-party liability, and additional expenses such as expert fees and item replacement. Pricing is a fixed rate per apartment per year regardless of surface size (94 to 300 square meters) or location, paid in Euros including all applicable taxes and VAT. The contract is firm-fixed-price, and the attachment summary describes it as an IDIQ with orders for a minimum of 150 and a maximum of 260 apartments. The Government may award based on initial offers without discussion, though the attachment summary states discussions may be held with companies in the competitive range if necessary. Award goes to the responsible company submitting the lowest acceptable price.
