What it does
BP 08 04 addresses professional liability coverage for the insured's negligent acts, errors or omissions in providing printing services. A printing job that comes out wrong – misprinted price, wrong date, omitted copy – typically causes economic loss to the customer, which the BOP's bodily injury and property damage coverage would not otherwise pay.
Who needs it
Print shops, quick-print and copy centers and commercial printers written on the BOP.
Quoting and selling notes
- Ask about job types (advertising inserts, legal notices, labels) and proofing procedures; customer sign-off on proofs is a key control.
- The 01 06 edition is the current one in forms lists; Illinois and Oregon use state versions (BP 08 53 and BP 08 11).
