SAA invites insurance proposals

 

Salina, Kan., (August 10, 2010) -  The Salina Airport Authority has recently engaged the services of independent insurance consulting and risk management firm, Charlesworth and Associates, LC and is seeking proposals for property, liability and workers' compensation insurance to be effective January 1, 2011.   
 
Charlesworth and Associates, LC has been providing objective insurance consulting services since 1977, specializing in public entities.  The firm is neither an insurance agent nor a broker.  They do not sell insurance.
 
"Our initial focus with the Authority will be to seek competitive property and liability insurance products from insurance brokers who demonstrate the capability and capacity to represent the Authority," explained Member James Charlesworth.  "Two or more qualified brokers will receive a customized request for proposal outlining the program terms and conditions.  Proposals will be reviewed by our firm and presented to the Authority's management and Board.  It will be our firm's responsibility to manage all phases of the proposal process and to assure both staff and the Board understand the proposals offered.  Although we may be asked for a recommendation, our primary focus will be to give the Board the necessary information to make an informed decision they deem to be in their best interest.  This process for seeking proposals is equitable to all participants and creates a competitive situation which we believe benefits the Authority."
 
Charlesworth and Associates came highly recommended with an impressive list of references and excellent track record.
 
Insurance brokers who would like to be included must contact the following firm, by no later than 12:00 noon, August 25, 2010.

Respondents will be provided a coverage summary and broker pre-qualification questionnaire, including specific instructions and a sample broker agreement.  Two or more brokers will be selected to receive the RFP.
