The Iowa Real Estate Commission is soliciting proposals for a group errors and omissions insurance program to provide professional liability coverage for all active Iowa-licensed real estate professionals, including resident and non-resident brokers, broker associates, salespersons, and licensed firms, totaling over 11,000 active licensees as of April 2026. The contract must ensure coverage complies with Iowa Code §543B.47, prohibiting insurers from canceling individual licensee coverage under the group policy while allowing licensees to obtain independent coverage that meets statutory minimums. The state seeks a vendor capable of delivering cost-effective insurance premiums alongside comprehensive administrative services such as claims handling, loss record management, claim reserve establishment, payment processing, and regular management reporting. The contract has an initial two-year term beginning on the execution date and may be renewed at the state’s sole discretion for up to four additional one-year extensions, with a maximum total term of six years. The state will provide written notice of renewal intent at least sixty days prior to the end of each current term. Proposals must be submitted via the designated online portal with mandatory certifications required each time the bid is reopened after initial submission, even if no changes are made. Respondents must also resubmit their proposal after any amendment issued by the contracting officer, though all previously submitted information will be retained; the vendor’s responsibility is to review and acknowledge the amendment. All amendments must be downloaded from the Buyer Attachments tab, signed, and included with the technical proposal’s transmittal letter. The solicitation, numbered DASIowa-005-RFP-2678-2026, was posted on May 17, 2026, with a deadline for responses on June 16, 2026. Jocelyn Brincks is the point of contact for inquiries, and bidders are strongly advised to save progress frequently during submission, particularly after uploading documents, to ensure no data loss occurs.

It is advised to "Save Progress" often and especially after uploading documents. NOTE: Anytime the Respondent opens their bid after the initial submission, they MUST certify and resubmit. No information will be lost from the initial submission. NOTE: Respondent must approve and resubmit their Proposal after an amendment has been posted by the Issuing Officer. If the Proposal was submitted before the amendment, all information will be saved. The Respondent only needs to read and acknowledge the amendment. Instructions for Amendments: Download the Amendment document under the 'Buyer Attachments' tab. Sign the document and include with your Transmittal Letter as part of your Technical Proposal. 1.1. Background. The Iowa Real Estate Commission is responsible for ensuring the availability and administration of a group errors and omissions (professional liability) insurance program for all active Iowa-licensed real estate professionals. This includes resident and non-resident brokers, broker associates, salespersons, and licensed firms (corporations and partnerships). Pursuant to Iowa Code section § 543B.47, the group policy must not grant the insurance provider the right to cancel coverage for individual licensees. Licensees retain the option to obtain independent coverage, provided such coverage meets the minimum statutory requirements. The statute does not prescribe specific premium amounts to be charged to licensees. As of April 24, 2026 there were 9,507 resident licensees in active status, including firms, broker officers, broker sole-proprietors, broker associates, and salespersons, as well as 1,798 non-resident active licensees. Additionally, there were 1,481 resident and non-resident licensees in inactive status. 1.1. Objectives. The State of Iowa seeks to establish a contract for a group insurance program that provides cost-effective coverage along with comprehensive administrative services. These services include, but are not limited to, claims handling and investigation, maintenance of computerized loss records, management reporting, establishment of claim reserves, and processing of claim payments. Contract Term. The Contract shall have an initial term of two (2) years, beginning on the date of contract execution (the “Effective Date”). At the end of the Contract’s initial term, the State shall have the option, in its sole discretion to renew the Contract on the same terms and conditions for up to a total of four (4) additional one-year terms, for a total contract term not to exceed six (6) years. The State will give the Vendor written notice of its intent whether to exercise each option no later than sixty (60) days before the end of the Contract’s then-current term.
