    Where Does Risk Assessment,

    Insurance, Bonding and

    Indemnification Fit in the Contracting

    Process?

    At the inception of an idea, your agencyshould perform a risk assessment of theactivity.

    Use The Contract Documents

    As Your First Tools

    A Request for Information (RFI) can be veryuseful in determining the amounts ofinsurance your targeted contractors carry

    and how much the coverage costs them. An Invitation to Bid (ITB) and a Request for

    Proposal (RFP) are commonly used in thebidding process.

    At the beginning of the process, use theRisk Assessment to decide types andamounts of Insurance and Bonding thatshould be built into the bid document.

    Dont Forget About History!

    Has your agency, oversight

    agency, or peers procuredthis type of service orproduct before?

    Review solicitation orcontract files.

    Review past practice.

    9/149

    What is a Risk Appetite? Risk appetite is the degree of

    uncertainty an agency is willing toaccept to reach its goals.

    Risk appetite is a key factor in

    evaluating strategic options. Risk Assessment helps

    management consider riskappetite when setting goals thatalign with overall agency strategy,and managing risks related to thatstrategy.

    Work with your agencys management to

    decide:

    What is your agencys risktolerance?

    How much or what are you

    willing to risk to accomplishthe mission or activity?

    How much can your agencyafford to lose in any oneoccurrence or in theaggregate?

    GOAL:

    To insure that a contractor is

    responsible for claims arising outof his or her acts, and has someway to pay for these losses.

  • 8/10/2019 Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap Presentation

    53/149

    Principle #1

    Contractually transfer the risk to thecontractor.

    Indemnity is only as good as the assetsor insurance coverage backing it up.

    Ask for appropriate insurance and

    bonds to cover the risk.

    Principle #3

  • 8/10/2019 Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap Presentation

    55/149

    Principle #3 Dont rely on insurance or bonds to

    cover all of the risks associated

    with your contract. Many times outcome based

    statements of work, contract

    administration, and supervision arefar better risk control measures toprotect the states interests thaninsurance or bonds.

    Insurance and bonds should bethought of as the safety net thatcatches us when everything else

    goes wrong.

    (3) What is the likelihood that each of thesepotential loss exposures will happen?

    4) Rate the severity of each potential lossexposure. How bad can it be? Whatcould it cost?

    5) Determine the risk rating for eachpotential loss exposure.

    E = Extreme Risk:

    First, consider not doingthe activity.

    If you must, you will needto decide how much apotential loss could cost?

    In general, risks at thislevel warrant more than $1million in coverage.

    H = High Risk:

  • 8/10/2019 Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap Presentation

    133/149

    Could a potential loss cost in

    excess of $1 million? If so, askfor more coverage.

    Make sure your assessmentconsiders all costs of potential

    losses. Risk Management would not

    recommend limits of less than

    $1 million for High rated risks.

    M = Moderate Risk:

  • 8/10/2019 Contract Risk Assessment Roadmap Presentation

    134/149

    Standard limit of insuranceis $1 million.

    Assessment shouldconsider all costs of

    potential losses. If assessment reveals

    potential loss in excess of$1 million, your risk mayactually be high (see H forHigh Risk.)

    L = Low Risk: If risk is minimal this is the area where

    135/149

    If risk is minimal, this is the area wherecoverage and limits may potentially be flexible.

    Standard limit is still $1 million.

    In the case of minimal risks, the agency couldmake a business decision to lower the limits of

    coverage. Risk Management would not generally

    recommend insurance limits of less than$500,000.

    If the risk assessment reveals onlyminute risk, agency could make abusiness decision to waive coverage.
