THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Change in employee health insurance base plan from Blue Cross Blue Shield Texas Blue Choice (PPO) to Blue Essentials (HMO).
The city will continue to pay 100% of the premium for employee-only coverage at the $3,000 deductible for the HMO plan. Employees can elect the PPO or add family at their own additional cost. This change saves the city approximately $425,000 compared to keeping the PPO as the base plan.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
When will City of Orange issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Orange's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with City of Orange before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
Where can I find more insurance government opportunities in Texas?
