CONTRACTOR AND VENDOR INSURANCE

 

 

The Orleans Parish School Board shall require all contractors and vendors doing business with the School Board to maintain adequate insurance coverage.  Such coverage shall include workers' compensation and third party liability coverage.  The contractor or vendor may not appear at the facility either to unload materials or to begin work until a valid insurance certificate has been provided to the Superintendent or his/her designee.  If the contractor or vendor cannot provide these coverages, another contractor or vendor may be secured.

 

  1. No contract shall be countersigned by the Superintendent or authorized School Board representative unless a valid insurance certificate has been provided. 

  2. Once a valid insurance certificate has been received, the Superintendent or his/her designee shall assure that the certificate is valid and meets the limits prescribed in the specifications and/or contract agreement.
