About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The City of DeBary, Florida is seeking comprehensive brokerage services for health insurance and employee benefits through a Request for Proposals (RFP) issued on August 30, 2017. The procurement targets a qualified firm to serve as Broker of Record and provide consulting, negotiating, and employee communication services for a workforce of approximately 38 full-time employees. Specific services include broker support for health, dental, vision, life, disability insurance, health savings accounts, and flexible spending account benefits. The RFP requires respondents to submit one original and three copies of their proposals, including a cover letter, five-paragraph executive summary, completed questionnaire, and three current client references. Evaluation criteria will focus on responsiveness, expertise, reliability, depth of proposed services, fee structure, and innovative cost containment ideas. Key procurement dates include a September 11, 2017 deadline for written inquiries, September 15, 2017 proposal submission deadline, a September 18, 2017 proposal opening, and September 20, 2017 Selection Committee review. The city anticipates oral presentations during the week of September 25, 2017, with City Council approval scheduled for October 4, 2017.

The procurement allows for a two-year initial agreement with three optional one-year renewal periods. The current agent/broker of record is Brown and Brown, with existing coverage through Florida Hospital Care Advantage, Principal Dental, Standard Vision, and supplemental life and disability insurance providers. The City of DeBary is tax-exempt from Florida Sales and Federal Excise taxes and reserves the right to reject any or all proposals or select component services from multiple firms. No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were mentioned in the documentation. While a precise award value was not explicitly stated, the scope suggests a contract supporting health insurance and benefits administration for a small municipal workforce. The city's approach indicates flexibility in vendor selection, prioritizing comprehensive service capabilities and innovative benefit management strategies over strict procurement constraints.
