Successful Bid Protest for Healthcare and Insurance Provider
Representation of Corvel Corporation, a publicly traded, national provider of healthcare and insurance management services, in connection with a bid protest in the City of Fort Lauderdale. Corvel had been ranked first and recommended for award of a Third-Party Workers' Compensation Administration contract by the City's evaluation committee, but was subsequently disqualified by the City administration on legal grounds. Prior to Bilzin Sumberg's involvement, Corvel filed an administrative bid protest challenging the disqualification, and the City administration denied the protest. Three days after being engaged, successfully prosecuted an appeal of the bid protest before the City Commission. The Commission unanimously voted to overturn the City administration's decision and award Corvel the contract.
