When responding to an international call for tenders, technical, financial and logistical aspects are studied in detail. However, one key element is often underestimated: international health insurance for teams sent into the field.
Whether they are engineers, consultants, technicians or volunteers, their protection, via a overseas business insurance is essential. Not only does it determine the success of your project, it can also affect the conformity of your proposal.
Health insurance, a key factor in your bid responses
Responding to an international call for tenders is more than just offering a price and know-how. You can also be expected to provide solid guarantees on human risk management.
By including an international health insurance solution in your offer, you demonstrate that :
- anticipate local legal constraints (visas, employer obligations, etc.)
- protect your employees from medical costs, which can be very high abroad
- you secure the continuity of your project by avoiding unforeseen health problems.
It’s a differentiating factor. Indeed, a company that provides for the health of its teams inspires more confidence than one that leaves it out.
Why international health insurance is a strategic investment
A compliance factor
Some international tenders include obligations relating to employee protection. In some countries, proof of international health insurance is essential to obtain a visa or to be authorized to employ expatriate staff.
By anticipating this requirement, you avoid any administrative blockage and demonstrate that your organization complies with the legal and contractual standards expected internationally.
A competitive advantage
Although a call for tenders is very much about price, clients are looking for reliable partners who can handle the unexpected.
By including international health insurance in your offer, you demonstrate your ability to secure the human factor. Taking out international tender insurance demonstrates proactive management of human and financial risks. This can be a decisive advantage over competitors who do not take this aspect into account.
Simplified logistics
Each country has its own rules and its own healthcare system. Searching for local solutions for each destination multiplies the steps involved and is therefore very time-consuming.
With international health insurance, you can unify management and offer the same coverage to everyone, regardless of where they work. The result is greater efficiency and reduced administrative complexity.
Security for the company
A serious accident or hospitalization abroad can cost tens of thousands of euros. Without appropriate insurance, these unforeseen expenses can jeopardize the profitability of your project.
With international coverage, you can control your financial risk and guarantee business continuity, even in complex environments.
