Require all vendors and tenants to provide a certificate of insurance showing active property insurance coverage before they begin work or occupy space.
Verify that the PROP policy lists your property or management company as an Additional Insured (where applicable).
Confirm coverage limits meet or exceed your minimum requirements (typically Replacement cost of tenant improvements).
Set up expiration tracking to receive alerts 30, 60, and 90 days before policies lapse.
Automate follow-up notifications so non-compliant vendors and tenants receive reminders without manual effort.
Maintain an auditable compliance history for each vendor and tenant in case of claims or disputes.
