"Navigating OCIP / CCIP on Projects"

East Bank Club
Chicago, IL
The Electrical Contractors’ Association of City of Chicago (ECA) Research and Education Committee was proud to sponsor a complimentary pre-Membership Meeting seminar called, “Navigating OCIP and CCIP on Projects.” The guest presenters were Patrick Johnson, MarshMcLennan Agency and Rod Dettbarn, Hub International. The program was held on May 13, 2026 at the East Bank Club in Chicago.
Seminar Background:
- OCIP (Owner Controlled Insurance Program): The property owner or developer purchases insurance to cover all contractors and subcontractors. This provides the owner with maximum control over coverage limits and safety, often used for large, high-risk projects.
- CCIP (Contractor Controlled Insurance Program): The general contractor (GC) purchases the insurance policy, which covers themselves and all subcontractors. These are often preferred when the contractor has better safety records or lower insurance rates than the owner, allowing the contractor to manage risk directly.
Attendees learned:
- The importance on tracking OCIP / CCIP during a project
- Understanding the proper paperwork / documentation needed for each
- Understanding credits, proper negotiations, track progress at end of cycle
- Impact on Mod rate, claims that affect Mod rate
- Overall audit process
We thank the presenters and all who were able to attend.
