Real Property Insurance Services

The County of Los Angeles (County) Department of Treasurer and Tax Collector (TTC), Public Administrator Branch (PA) is issuing this Request for Statement of Qualifications (RFSQ) for the provision of Real Property Insurance Services. The TTC intends to establish a Master List (List) of qualified insurance brokers of property-casualty insurance products to provide liability, casualty, fire, and related insurance coverages for real properties and/or contents of real properties managed by the PA. The PA will initiate a request for insurance coverage via an email to each Contractor on the List to provide the proposed coverage at an estimated real property value by a set deadline. Upon the PA's receipt of the proposed coverage bids, the PA will select a Contractor from the submitted policy proposals, no later than two business days after the deadline. The List will have an initial term of five years unless sooner terminated or extended in whole or in part by the option of the County. You may download the RFSQ from the Internet by accessing the County's website at http://camisvr.co.la.ca.us/lacobids, selecting 'View Open Bids,' selecting 'List by Department,' selecting 'Treasurer and Tax Collector,' from the drop-down list and then click on 'Select Department.'
