Wrap-Up Insurance in Colorado for Construction Projects

Cover Your High-Risk Construction Projects and Related Liabilities with Wrap-Up Insurance

From heavy-duty industrial equipment to working at height and handling building materials, construction worksites involve many safety hazards that could result in potential lawsuits and liabilities. A Wrap-Up plan is a consolidated insurance policy where a controlling entity (usually the owner or general contractor) purchases insurance coverage for all the trades working on the job site.

That's why, at Riverbend Insurance, we offer comprehensive wrap-up insurance to provide adequate liability protection for the owners, contractors, and subcontractors involved in the construction project. Whether a third party suffers an onsite injury or an employee falls off a ladder, we've got you covered at Riverbend.

Our Wrap-Up Insurance Components

Insurance Agent - Organizes/writes the program for the insured

Our Wrap-Up Insurance Elements

Recognizing Financial Risks

It involves identifying the financial impact of a wrap-up insurance policy, which include:

Cost Savings or Losses - While filing claims often may cause losses to the sponsor, fewer claims help them save.
Collateral- Assets serve as security against future liability. As a sponsor, you'll have to provide collateral to utilize the program's loss funds.

Claims Management

Generally, program sponsors hire a third-party administrator (TPA) to handle claims management tasks, including:

Selecting insurance carriers, identifying liabilities, and negotiating insurance coverages and terms
Creating a realistic return-to-work program
Hiring an efficient wrap-up administration team to manage the paperwork
Crafting cost-saving protocols for the loss fund
Coordinating with the insurance carrier and the agent to handle outstanding claims
