CRANE & RIGGING INSURANCE PROGRAM Norman-Spencer Agency Crane & Rigging Insurance Program Norman-Spencer, through its JC Stevens division, offers a focused Crane & Rigging program tailored for agents placing crane operators, riggers and construction service contractors. We act as program underwriter, manager, and administrator to deliver targeted liability, auto and inland marine solutions that address common crane and heavy equipment exposures. Overview This program combines General Liability, Auto, Inland Marine and Umbrella options to protect operations that own, operate, rent or rig cranes and related equipment. Coverage is structured to support on-hook exposures, over-the-road exposures, and the physical damage and cargo risks that arise in crane and rigging work. Ideal Accounts and Appetite Agents can consider this program for a wide range of crane and rigging classes, including: Mobile crane operations (with or without operators) Crane equipment rental and boom truck fleets Steel erection contractors, millwrights and tower crane/TV-radio tower contractors Waste haulers, heavy equipment operators, and well drilling contractors with lifting exposures Motor truck cargo and builder’s risk classes with incidental crane use The program will accommodate incidental exposures such as man-baskets and substitute equipment. Typical restrictions include accounts with severe loss histories, known defect-prone equipment where repairs are deferred, or operations lacking documented operator qualifications—these may require additional underwriting review. Coverage Highlights and Advantages Key features designed for agent efficiency and insured protection: General Liability: mobile equipment included under GL; blanket Additional Insured and Waiver of Subrogation; primary & non-contributory wording; per-project aggregate available Auto: separate auto policy option for ID cards and filings, with on-hook and over-the-road coverages Inland Marine: physical damage for boom trucks and equipment, overload and boom collapse coverage, leased/rented equipment, bailees and riggers liability, motor truck cargo Umbrella/Excess: flexible layers up to $5 million to wrap primary limits Automatic Inland Marine enhancements for tools, crane attachments, rental reimbursement and newly acquired equipment Stop-gap coverage available for monopolistic states Underwriting Notes and Minimum Premiums Required submission items: completed Markel supplemental, experience form, MVRs for each driver/operator, ACORDs for requested lines, equipment schedule (year/make/model/value), contracts/work tickets (if applicable), and 3–5 years of loss runs.
