RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission of the City of Miami
Beach, Florida approve the resolution accepting the City Manager's recommendation pertaining
to bids received, pursuant to RFP 2020-056-WG, Risk Management and Claims Software
System.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
The Human Resources/Risk Management Division ("RMD") is responsible for directing and
coordinating the Risk Management Program for the City of Miami Beach (CMB)which consists
of various components, including the following:
a. Management of the CMB's insurance program
b. Management of third-party claims made against the CMB
c. Identifying and assisting in the implementation of policies and procedures designed to reduce
the exposure of the CMB operations to risk
The Risk Management Division has identified the need to procure and implement a
professional, commercially available Risk Management and Information System (RMIS). The
RMIS platform should provide an overall solution for managing incidents, property and casualty
insurance claims, insurance certificates, policy management, asset tracking, and cost of risk
exposure analysis.

This system will be used to replace the existing RiskMaster product, which is end of life. It is
expected that the selected vendor will migrate the current information in the RMI S platform.
ANALYSIS
On February 13, 2020, the Administration issued Request for Proposals (RFP)2020-056-WG
for Risk Management and Claims Software. A publicly advertised pre-bid conference was
conducted on February 27, 2020. RFP responses were due and received on April 14,
2020. The City received proposals from the following five firms: American Technical Services,
Inc., Computer Sciences Corp. DBA DXC Technology Co., J D I Date Corporation, Origami
Risk LLC and Ventiv Technology Inc. All of the proposals submitted were found to be
responsive to the requirements of the REP.
On May 13, 2020, pursuant to LTC# 155-2020, the City Manager appointed Evaluation
Committee convened to consider proposals received. The Committee was comprised of Ed
Beecher, Human Resources Director, City of Pompano, Sonia Bridges, Division Director, Risk
Management & Benefits, Ralph Lavaud, Senior Systems Analyst, Information Technology
Department, Fernando Pestana, Budget Analyst, Budget Department and Ashraf Sohaib, Chief
Information Security Officer, Information Technology Department. The Committee was
provided an overview of the project, information relative to the City's Cone of Silence Ordinance
and the Government Sunshine Law. The Committee was also provided with general information
on the scope of services and a copy of each proposal. The Committee was instructed to score
and rank each proposal pursuant to the evaluation criteria established in the REP. The RFP
required that the Evaluation Committee evaluate proposals as to qualifications and the proposed
system.
The evaluation process resulted in the proposers being ranked by the Evaluation Committee in
the following order(See Attachment A):
1st—Origami Risk
2nd—Ventiv Technology
3rd—Computer Sciences/DXC Technology
4th—J D I Date
5th—American Technical Services
Staff has considered the Evaluation Committee's rankings and has determined that the top two
firms, Origami Risk and Ventiv Technology have proposed systems that address the City's
needs.A summary of the two top-ranked firms follows, as articulated in their proposals:
Origami Risk
Origami is led by a team of industry leaders with deep expertise in the risk management
technology needs of government and public entities. With nearly 100 government and public
entity clients, including 32 counties, 37 cities, 20 states, a federal agency, and more, they have
become firmly established as a leading risk management provider. These public sector clients
range from small municipalities to cities,states, and the federal government, and make up nearly
20 percent of their client base. The majority of their clients' projects have involved the
conversion of data from historical sources and, as such, they have tremendous experience in
this area. In particular, they have successfully performed more than 30 historical data migrations
from RiskMaster,the City's current system.

Ventiv Technology
Ventiv Technology has been serving the claims market, particularly the public sector, since
2002. With more than 625 implementations across their product suite, they have extensive
experience implementing systems and developing proven best practices. Their history in the
market and their strong client base, 48% of which are public entities or public risk pools, have
allowed them to develop a solution that meets the needs of many different claims organizations
out-of-the-box. Their comprehensive claims management and administration system, Ventiv
Claims Premier covers all lines of insurance and has a complete suite of optional compliance
programs for MMR, EDI, medical bill review, and more.
Because of the variability in how bidders normally price system implementations and to allow for
the maximum flexibility, the RFP stipulated that cost would be considered as a factor by the City
Manager. For example, some bidders did not quote fixed costs and, therefore, it is difficult to
determine the actual costs the City would incur.
Origami $414,470
Ventiv $ 590,975
Technology
Average* $486,664
*Average cost of all proposals that provided fixed costs.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The cost associated with risk management and claims software. is subject to the funds
availability approved through the City's budgeting process. Grant funding will not be utilized for
this project.
CONCLUSION
After reviewing all the submissions and the results of the evaluation process, I concur with the
Evaluation Committee and staff that the two top-ranked proposer Origami Risk and Ventiv
Technology will provide the Risk Management Division with the best combination of system and cost.
In particular, I am very impressed with the number of implementations that Origami has completed
that have required data to be migrated from Risk Master, the City's current system. This advantage
will help assure a more successful and expeditious implementation, which is important since the
City's current system is end of life.
Therefore, I recommend that the Mayor and City. Commission approve the Resolution
authorizing the Administration to negotiate with Origami Risk LLC, as the top-ranked proposer
and, if the Administration is not successful in negotiating an agreement with Origami Risk LLC,
authorizing the Administration to negotiate with Ventiv Technology Inc., as the second ranked
proposer. Finally, the Resolution authorizes the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the agreement
upon conclusion of successful negotiations by the Administration and approval by the City
Attorney.
