Description

The City seeks proposals for voluntary and group term life insurance, including accidental death and dismemberment coverage, and short- and long-term disability benefits for employees. The selected provider is expected to offer plan administration, employee and City customer support, online access to plan information and claims, benefit booklets, and account management. Partial proposals are permitted but not preferred; the City favors a provider able to deliver all requested coverage and services directly. Brokers, consultants, and commissioned agents are not allowed to participate in the proposal process or during the contract term. Proposals should describe the proposed coverage, services, rates, implementation and administrative capabilities, customer service, and relevant experience. The initial term is three years, with two optional one-year extensions. The City targets a July 1, 2027, effective date. The solicitation requests three references for similar services from the past 12 months, and the proposal must include the specified completed forms and affidavits. A Tennessee insurance license and financial-strength information are requested for the insurer whose name would appear on the policy.
