Insurance Status of Vendors, Contractors, and Organizations (.pdf): The Insurance Status Register will enable the user to determine if a service provider has on file with the District, valid insurance documents (Certificate of Insurance and/or Additional Insured endorsement). The user is encouraged to direct any questions to the Business Services / Risk Management Department (Clint Goodison, 425.431.7134).

Insurance Documentation: When used properly in conjunction with a hold harmless and indemnification agreement, insurance is an effective risk management tool used to fund the contractual transfer of risk of loss to the party having the greatest control of the loss exposure. Service and construction contracts should require, in favor of the District, primary, noncontributing additional insured status.
