The City of Bristol is soliciting proposals from qualified Third-Party Administrators to manage its self-insured workers’ compensation program, which serves employees of both the City and the Board of Education. The solicitation, identified as 2P27-007, seeks a comprehensive service provider capable of delivering administrative support, claims management, cost containment, and program oversight tailored to the needs of a public sector workforce. Proposals must be submitted through the City’s official bid portal at the specified URL, and interested parties are required to review the full Request for Proposal available there to understand all technical, operational, and compliance requirements. All responses are due by 5:00 PM on August 28, 2026, with the solicitation posted on July 31, 2026. The primary point of contact for questions and clarifications is Nancy Haynes, who can be reached via email or phone. The program operates under the jurisdiction of Connecticut and is administered by the Department of Administrative Services Procurement. While no specific set-aside or NAICS code is designated, bidders must be prepared to demonstrate experience in public sector workers’ compensation administration, proven track records in cost-effective claims resolution, and the infrastructure to support a dual-entity workforce spanning municipal and educational operations.
