Request for Proposals for Employee Insurances Due 4/14/25

Kent County Levy Court ("KCLC" and “the County”) is accepting Requests for Proposals (RFP) to procure high quality insurance benefits for employees and retirees through a fully insured format (except optional coverage).

Respondents should provide proposals from licensed insurers for employee insurances including group term life with AD&D, dental, optional term life, long term disability, travel accident, and short term disability (optional) insurance for employees, eligible retirees, and eligible dependents to become effective July 1, 2025 (RFP does not include health/medical, or vision insurances). The current plan year for the requested employee insurance products will expire on June 30, 2025, and the proposed plans/programs must become effective July 1, 2025.

This RFP provides interested respondents with information to prepare and submit a proposal for consideration regarding insurances for employees, eligible retirees, and eligible dependents. This RFP process is intended to identify potential contractors with which KCLC may, at its sole discretion, choose to enter into an agreement for the proposed insurance providers. It is expressly understood and agreed that the submission of a proposal does not require or obligate KCLC to pursue an agreement with any respondent. All negotiations are subject to consideration and discretionary approval by KCLC, which may, at its sole discretion, accept or reject any and/or all proposals and agreements.

Kent County Levy Court reserves the right to reject, without cause, any and all proposals, to waive any informality relative to proposals, and accept any proposal from any person deemed advantageous to the County.
