The Department of State issued a Special Notice on July 29, 2026 for life insurance services covering 102 locally employed staff at the U.S. Embassy in Manama, Kingdom of Bahrain, with a response deadline of August 13, 2026. No set-aside applies to this procurement.
The solicitation (19BA3026R0002) is the Embassy's first life insurance contract and requires coverage for death from any cause, permanent total disability (accident and sickness), and permanent partial disability (accident and sickness). Death benefits are structured at 36 times monthly salary, with Accidental Death & Dismemberment benefits payable in addition to natural death benefits, not as an alternative. Partial and total disability coverage is optional. The employee population consists of non-diplomatic, locally employed staff ranging in age from 29 to 62 years old, with salaries in Bahraini Dinars ranging from approximately 8,405 to 49,122 BHD annually. The workforce includes multiple nationalities, predominantly Indian, Bahraini, Pakistani, Filipino, Egyptian, Sri Lankan, Kenyan, Nepali, Ugandan, and Yemeni nationals.
The government has posted Amendment 0001 (dated July 14, 2026) transmitting offeror questions and answers addressing underwriting requirements, benefit structure, and coverage scope. Offerors must acknowledge receipt of this amendment prior to the solicitation deadline. The government provided employee census data and salary distribution in supporting attachments to enable accurate pricing and risk assessment.
