ITEM SUMMARY:

                     This resolution will reject all proposals received for 17-64RFP Vision Benefits.

 

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

                     Request for Proposals was issued on June 18, 2017 to compare existing voluntary vision program and benefits currently offered to employees and eligible dependents.

                     Proposal responses were opened on July 13, 2017 for Vision Benefits.  A total of six (6) responses were received.

                     All proposal responses resulted in overall higher vision rates compared to the existing vision policy.  

                     In efforts to sustain the best value for the City, staff recommendation is to remain with the existing vision plan provided by Davis Vision.  The City’s current vision plan with Davis Vision has a guaranteed rate through 2019.
