    Notice of Quote Solicitation for a Customizable, Pre-Built Software Solution for a

    Workers’ Compensation Web-Based On-Line Interactive Application Process

    The Florida Workers’ Compensation Joint Underwriting Association is issuing a Quote Solicitation (QS) for the purpose of engaging a reputable technology firm, preferably specializing in workers compensation systems, with a customizable pre-built software solution and sufficient resources to assist the FWCJUA in implementing a web-based on-line interactive application process within a six-month timeframe.

    The FWCJUA is searching for a workers’ compensation processing system to augment its current software infrastructure. The system would allow independent insurance agencies to submit new business applications via the internet and perform online inquiry into their book of business that resides with the FWCJUA. This agency web portal should allow agents to attach documents to the new business submission through this web-based process. Additionally, the system should possess a full policy administration database which will allow the FWCJUA to import data from its Third Party Administrator’s policy system and ultimately create standard policy reports from the new FWCJUA system. These reports could then be posted online via the agency web portal. This system should have a full agency profile management module as well as document management and diary/notes functionality within the policy system. Ideally, this system would have full policy, billing and claims management capability which would allow the FWCJUA the flexibility to bring any or all of those specific functions in house at a later date if desired.

    The FWCJUA is not a state agency. Accordingly, the QS process is not governed by the contracting procedures applicable to state agencies set forth in Florida Statutes and rules. Any entity which responds to the QS must expressly acknowledge in its response its understanding that the contracting procedure requirements which apply to state agencies do not apply to the FWCJUA. Interested parties may obtain the QS on or after July 2, 2009 by written request to: Laura Torrence, Executive Director, FWCJUA, P. O. Box 48957, Sarasota, FL 34230, fax: (941)487-2525. Responses to the QS will be due at 12:00 Noon (Eastern Time), July 24, 2009.
