DESCRIPTION
The City of Grand Rapids is seeking an insurance agent of record to serve as its insurance advisor and broker for new and renewed liability and property insurance programs. Potential programs may include property insurance, property terrorism insurance, special event liability, excess workers’ compensation, liquor liability, crime, pollution liability, third-party administration services, general liability insurance, and other coverage relevant to municipal operations.
The selected agent will work collaboratively with the City to evaluate, review, and develop alternative risk-financing strategies. These strategies will be compared with the City’s existing insurance and risk-financing programs to identify cost-effective and sustainable options, including full self-insurance, self-insured retentions, commercial insurance, or a combination of approaches.
The agent will also conduct an annual review of all property and liability insurance policies to assess policy language, coverage, and exclusions, identify potential coverage gaps, and ensure the City’s interests are protected. Training services and educational materials on insurance and risk management topics may also be required. Questions must be submitted by September 18, 2026.
