Technology E&O Insurance in Hawaii

Hawaii’s 2025 Department of Defense solicitation says E&O may be required for technology suppliers in a specific procurement; a 2024 Department of Defense solicitation separately described professional and technology-services liability and network/cyber coverage. Ask which terms govern your own award. 1,2

What Is Technology Errors And Omissions (E&O)?

Technology errors and omissions coverage can help pay when a customer claims your software, hosting, installation or technology advice caused financial loss. If you provide tech products or services, check each activity; cyber incidents and unrelated professional work need separate review. Read the national Technology errors and omissions (E&O) guide.

What to Watch for in Hawaii

  • Treat E&O as Solicitation-Specific

    The 2025 Hawaii DOD RFP says E&O is available for technology suppliers and may be required in the specific procurement being conducted. Before bidding or renewing, check the solicitation and resulting contract instead of assuming a statewide E&O limit. 1

  • Compare Service Claims With Network Claims

    A 2024 Hawaii DOD procurement separately names Professional and Technology-Based Services Liability and Network and Cyber Liability; cyber coverage can include the technology-services liability if that liability is not already included. Ask the broker to map the requested risks and avoid a gap or duplicate assumption between the forms. 2

  • Track the Certificate Through the Contract Term

    The 2024 DOD RFP permits a vendor to meet the relevant insurance requirements through its own policy or a subcontractor’s policy, and requires evidence to remain on file through the contract term and extensions. If implementation or support is subcontracted, ask whose policy responds to each service and who supplies proof of renewal. 2

Who Regulates Insurance in Hawaii

Hawaiʻi Insurance Division

The Insurance Division oversees insurance companies and producers, examines Hawaiʻi-based insurers, reviews rate and policy filings, and investigates insurance complaints. It is part of the Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs. 3,4,5

Surplus-lines tax and stamping office

Reported tax rate: 4.68% of premium when Hawaiʻi is the home state Hawaiʻi applies a 4.68% tax when it is the insured’s home state. Surplus-lines coverage is placed with an unauthorized insurer, so do not assume the Hawaiʻi Insurance Guaranty Association protects the policy; confirm the insurer’s status and policy terms with your broker. 6,7

Providers With Documented State Licenses

These providers publish a national listing for Technology errors and omissions (E&O); the state records document licenses for the entities and roles shown below. Some records rely on company-reported information rather than independent regulator verification. A national listing does not confirm the product is available in Hawaii. Check the regulator’s license lookup and confirm state availability for your business when requesting a quote.

  • At-BayAt-Bay Insurance Services LLCInsurance producer, Surplus-lines broker · checked 2026-09-28At-Bay’s license page lists P&C producer and surplus-lines broker license numbers for all 50 states and the District of Columbia. These are company disclosures and do not establish product availability in each jurisdiction. 8
  • CoalitionCoalition Insurance Solutions, Inc.Insurance producer, Surplus-lines broker · checked 2026-09-28Coalition’s license page lists producer and surplus-lines licenses for Coalition Insurance Solutions, Inc. in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The page separately lists insurers; this record covers the brokerage entity only. 9
  • CorgiCorgi Insurance Services, Inc.Insurance producer · checked 2026-09-28Corgi’s company producer-license table lists 50 jurisdictions: 49 states and the District of Columbia, including DC license 3003091619. New Mexico does not appear in the table and is not included here; the omission does not establish that Corgi is unlicensed there. The company-reported table has no stated as-of date and does not establish product availability. 10
  • TechInsuranceSpecialty Program Group LLCInsurance producer · checked 2026-09-28TechInsurance’s current licensing page names Specialty Program Group LLC / SPG Insurance Solutions and lists state license numbers, but labels Rhode Island “Individual licenses” rather than identifying a license for the named agency. RI is omitted because this disclosure does not establish agency authority there; this is a search limitation, not an assertion that the company is unlicensed. The remaining state entries are company-reported and are not an insurance product availability map. 13
  • VouchVouch Specialty Insurance Services, LLCInsurance producer, Surplus-lines broker · checked 2026-09-28Vouch’s licenses page, effective January 16, 2025, lists producer licenses in all 50 states and DC. Its separate surplus-lines table includes Idaho number 870820, while a footnote says Georgia and Idaho do not issue agency-level surplus-lines licenses. Because those statements conflict for Idaho, this record keeps Idaho producer-only and does not treat the table number as established agency surplus-lines authority. The page is company-reported and does not establish product availability. 14

Questions to Ask Before You Buy in Hawaii

  1. For this Hawaii solicitation, does the insurance schedule require E&O for my software, implementation or support work?
  2. Does the proposed network/cyber policy duplicate or leave a gap beside technology-services liability?
  3. If subcontractors perform configuration or hosting, whose policy and certificate satisfy each contract obligation?

Technology Errors And Omissions (E&O) in Hawaii: FAQ

Does Hawaii require every technology supplier to carry E&O? 1

No universal requirement is established by the sources reviewed. The 2025 Hawaii DOD solicitation says E&O may be required for the specific procurement, so check the RFP and resulting contract for your service scope. 1

Can a Hawaii procurement combine Tech E&O and cyber coverage? 2

Yes. A 2024 DOD RFP said Network and Cyber Liability could include Professional and Technology-Based Services Liability if that coverage was not already included under the professional E&O policy. Ask the broker and contracting officer to confirm the actual wording. 2
