Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council procured claims management software to support its insurance claims handling. The requirement is for software rather than a claims-handling service: the stated scope is claims management software, classified as an IT service. The work is associated with Bradford, in Yorkshire and the Humber. The contract concerns the council’s use of a software solution for managing insurance claims; no further functional requirements or specific claims types are described.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to J C Applications Development Limited. The council used a direct award through the G-Cloud 14 framework. The award was made on 9 October 2026, for £33,050. The contract runs from 12 October 2026 to 11 October 2029, with a stated term of three years and an option for one 12-month extension. The original estimated value was £30,000–£40,000. The notice gives no separate lots or evaluation criteria, so the published outcome is a single award rather than a lot-by-lot result.

For suppliers tracking the council’s future insurance claims technology needs, this award shows demand for claims management software bought through the G-Cloud framework and delivered as a software solution, rather than outsourced claims handling. A credible competitor would need to provide software suitable for managing insurance claims and be able to supply through the framework route used here. The successful supplier was a large company, while the procurement was not designated as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The published scope does not identify particular technical features, integrations, accreditations or implementation capacity, so the clearest evidence of buyer preference is the fit of the software to the council’s claims-management requirement and the supplier’s ability to meet it through G-Cloud.
