Benefits Broker Services RFP # 23-249

Pender County (hereinafter referred to as “County”) is requesting proposals and statement of qualifications from qualified consulting/broker firms (hereinafter referred to as “Consultant”) to provide benefit consulting to include assistance with benefit design, bidding and evaluation, contract negotiation, on-going evaluation, plan modification and other services required to obtain and maintain a competitive benefits program.

The County seeks a benefit plan that can be adjusted annually based on experience as well as one that can easily adapt to changes in market conditions and regulations.  Currently the County is a member of the State Health Plan (SHP), which presently is partnered with BCBS of NC but as you probably already know will partner with Aetna in 2025.  We are unsure how this will affect our employee health insurance in the future and if there will be an opportunity to research other options or remain with the SHP.  Therefore, the County is interested in a firm with a demonstrated record of taking a creative, innovative approach to maneuver through the rising costs of healthcare and employee benefits, while maintaining fiscal responsibility and providing an unbiased perspective to the process.

All prospective Consultants will be afforded full opportunity to submit a proposal and statements of qualifications in response to this request.  This Request for Proposal (RFP) is an invitation by the County for consultants to submit an offer, which may be subject to subsequent discussion. Submittal of proposal does not create any right in or expectation to a contract with the County.

Pender County Residents Urged to Sign-up to Receive Local Alerts

PENDER COUNTY – Pender County residents can now receive real-time public safety messages.

Pender County has contracted with Nixle to implement a Community Notification System to alert residents of localized emergency situations and relevant community advisories. This will replace CodeRed which has been used by Pender County Emergency Management for several years.

“Our priority is the health and safety of our residents,” said Tommy Batson, Pender County Emergency Management Director. “We urge all of residents, businesses, and visitors of Pender County to register for this free community alert system.”

There are three ways to register:

Go to pendercountync.gov and sign up via the Nixle Widget

Text your Zip Code to 888777 from your mobile phone

Download the Everbridge (Nixle Alert) App on your mobile phone.

Once registered, residents will receive a confirmation text on their mobile devices. Residents may also customize their alert settings by going to www.nixle.com to create a User Profile.

Landline telephone numbers are automatically updated every month and will receive voice alerts, so no action is necessary if a resident only uses a landline.

“This service is secure, reliable, and easy to use,” said Batson. “The service will alert residents to weather conditions, wildfires, and more by geographic location.”

All Alerts will be targeted geographically, allowing residents to receive localized, relevant alerts from Pender County. Alerts can be sent via Text messaging, Email, Voice, Web, Social Media, and the Nixle Mobile App in an instant.

Nixle, founded in 2009, is known for its data security. The company serves more than 7,200 agencies within the United States for emergency alerts.

For questions or concerns call Pender County Emergency Management at 910-259-1210.
