Description

The City of San Diego is seeking an experienced private‑investigation/insurance‑adjusting firm to provide as‑needed investigative services across four categories: workers’ compensation investigations, liability investigations, surveillance, and special investigative unit (SIU) fraud investigations. The contract is “as‑needed,” with no guaranteed minimum volume; the City will pay only for services actually performed. Contractors must hold appropriate California Private Investigator and/or Insurance Adjuster licenses, meet experience thresholds, and adhere to strict reporting timelines (monthly invoicing, quarterly cost reports, and 60‑day status updates). The award will be a 5‑year maximum term, extendable only by ordinance, and will require compliance with extensive insurance, bonding, and Contractor Standards requirements.

Budget estimate

$500,000 – $2,000,000

The solicitation does not disclose a contract ceiling, but based on the estimated annual quantities (1,750 workers’ comp claims, 2,000 liability claims, 65 surveillance cases) and typical rates for private‑investigation services (ranging from $150–$350 per hour), the total annual spend could fall between roughly $500,000 and $2,000,000. Over the 5‑year term, the contract value might therefore range from $2.5 million to $10 million, depending on actual claim volume and any “rush” service premiums.
