AI Contract Overview
Cypress Fairbanks Independent School District (CFISD) is initiating a two-step procurement process for insurance services, beginning with a Request for Qualification (RFQ) to identify and shortlist qualified respondents. The second step involves a Request for Proposal (RFP), where shortlisted companies will submit detailed responses through their designated agents. The district aims to contract with financially reliable insurance providers at the lowest possible cost, with ongoing consultation from agents on coverage, loss control, and related matters. All bids must be submitted electronically via the eBid system, with registered vendors responsible for reviewing any issued addenda. The process emphasizes communication exclusively through the designated procurement contact, America Williams, and requires interested parties to complete an Agent Questionnaire (Attachment D). The current insurance coverage with TASB RMF expires on July 1, 2024, and proposals are due by May 2, 2024. The district manages a fleet of approximately 1,750 vehicles, a student body of over 117,000, and employee payroll nearing $950 million. Proposers must demonstrate local office volume and loss ratios, and insurance companies will be assigned primarily based on existing relationships, service quality, and proximity, with a preference for current agents and local support. The process also considers exclusive arrangements with insurers or MGAs, and additional companies may be requested after initial market assignments. The contract scope includes auto, liability, cyber insurance, and workers' compensation third-party administration, with the solicitation posted under number 24-06-5361RFQ Addendum 1.

The District’s current coverages with TASB RMF expire July 1, 2024. Proposals will be due May 2, 2024. Vehicle Count: 1,750 (Liability only with a $25,000 deductible) Student Count: 117,652 Employee Payroll: $949,659,433 All proposers will be qualified, and insurance companies will be assigned exclusively to a Texas licensed agent or risk pool. The proposer’s questionnaire is to be completed by the agency/company, showing proposing local servicing office (not corporate or regional) volumes and fully insured loss ratios with the selected insurance companies – not the MGA’s. Indicate the name of any Risk Retention Group, Underwriting Manager, MGA or Wholesaler that will be used, but MGAs and Wholesalers will not be assigned.
Assigned agents will not be allowed to partner or joint venture with other agents without prior approval from the District. If partnering, the joint venture will be assigned only one of the agent’s lists of assigned companies, not both.
When assigning insurance companies to agencies, the District will attempt to use the following criteria:
1. Current agents will be assigned first choice of companies, assuming satisfactory service by the agent. Assignments will attempt to avoid dividing companies or groups among different agencies.
2. Location, services, school insurance experience, backup support and insurance company relationships will be important considerations when assigning insurance companies and agencies.
3. Failure to show local office premium volume and loss ratio assumes zero premiums with a direct placement insurance company.
4. If your agency has an exclusive arrangement with an MGA or insurance company regarding this District, please attach evidence on their letterhead.
5. Additional companies may be requested after original assignment of markets.
