The City of Spokane is procuring a professional services firm to act as its risk‑management insurance broker for a five‑year period. The broker will manage all existing and new insurance programs (workers’ compensation, general liability, property, cyber, terrorism, etc.), conduct market analysis, obtain competitive quotes, negotiate terms, provide claims support, and deliver loss‑control consulting and training. The award is being made to Arthur J. Gallagher Risk Management Services, LLC after a competitive RFP process that received five proposals. The contract’s value is not disclosed, but the city’s total insurance premium schedule for 2025‑2026 totals roughly $3.77 million, and the broker’s compensation will be a fee‑plus‑commission structure.
• Scope includes full brokerage, risk‑financing alternatives, policy negotiation, claims handling, and training.
• Contract length: 5 years, renewable by mutual agreement.
• Awarded vendor: Arthur J. Gallagher Risk Management Services, LLC (single‑award).
• No set‑aside requirements; open competition.
• Payment will be via ACH after invoicing; the city retains the right to withhold disputed amounts.
