US Mission in Harare, Zimbabwe life insurance for Locally Employed Staff

The U.S. Embassy in Harare, Zimbabwe, plans to solicit bids for a contract to provide customized life insurance services for its locally employed staff. The contract will include a base period of twelve months, with the possibility of four additional one-year option periods at the government's discretion. Prospective contractors must be fully compliant with all Zimbabwean legal and regulatory requirements for operating in the country, specifically holding legal registration as an insurance firm under Section 72 of the Insurance Act [Chapter 24:07], which restricts bidding to locally registered companies. The solicitation, identified by number SZ1150-16-R-0003, has not yet been officially released but will be made available on the Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOpps) website when issued. The requirement falls under NAICS code 524113, related to direct insurance carriers for life insurance. Contact points for this solicitation include Kristian Ekholm, AGSO, and Eliot Tseriwa, Procurement Supervisor, both reachable via email and phone in Harare. This opportunity ensures that the embassy's locally employed staff receive tailored life insurance coverage through a legally compliant, locally registered provider.
