About the company
Zimnat Lion Insurance Company LIMITED, a Harare, Zimbabwe–based for-profit limited liability company, operates as a prime contractor delivering group life insurance and vehicle insurance coverage to the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of African Affairs in support of diplomatic operations in Zimbabwe. The vendor competes on an unrestricted basis with no set-aside designations across all federal awards and holds no position on government-wide vehicles or schedule contracts.
Zimnat Lion's federal footprint is concentrated entirely within the State Department's Zimbabwe mission. The company holds two multiple-award indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts: the primary "LES Life Insurance Contract" awarded May 1, 2022, with a ceiling of $1,299,935 through April 30, 2027, and a second IDIQ from December 2019 with a potential value of $68,971.50. Across both IDIQs, Zimnat Lion has generated 34 awards totaling $2.5 million in combined potential value, with $1.1 million obligated to date (45% of ceiling). The two IDIQs account for the entire delivery-order volume: the May 2022 contract carries 28 task orders ($1.1 million combined value), and the December 2019 contract carries 4 task orders ($47,000 combined value). Representative delivery orders include a $89,085.54 order issued June 3, 2026, for group life insurance coverage of U.S. government personnel and locally employed staff; a $79,407.25 order from July 2025 for LE staff coverage February through April 2025; and a $93,465.78 order from June 2024 for general life assurance services. Monthly life insurance orders typically carry values between $11,000 and $20,000, with multi-month periods commanding $40,000–$80,000 per order.
Customer concentration is absolute: the Department of State Bureau of African Affairs accounts for 33 of 34 awards ($2.4 million), with a single $69,000 vehicle-insurance order from the U.S. Embassy Harare in December 2019. Award activity peaked in 2023 (12 awards) but has declined sharply—four awards in 2024, four in 2025, and two in 2026 year to date. Three awards carrying combined potential value of $188,000 reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, representing moderate recompete exposure. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of awards) with no subcontract footprint. Capability is narrowly scoped to group life insurance for diplomatic personnel in Zimbabwe (29 awards under NAICS 524210 / PSC Social Government Life Insurance Programs) and vehicle insurance (5 awards under PSC Social Government Insurance Programs—Other), both delivered directly from Zimnat Lion's Harare headquarters without identified subcontractors.
