Summary of the contracting process

Bath Spa University procured cyber insurance services under the name “Cyber Insurance”. The requirement covered its Resilience Premium, providing insurance protection connected with cyber risk and organisational resilience. It is classified under IT services, including consulting, software development, internet and support services, although the immediate requirement is insurance rather than software delivery. The work is for Bath Spa University and is associated with the South West of England. This is a specialist risk and insurance service for a higher education organisation, rather than a general IT support, software development or construction requirement. Businesses should therefore assess their relevance based on their ability to provide cyber insurance and related resilience cover to a university buyer.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a selective call-off from the LUPC Insurance Brokerage Framework. The tender submission deadline was 31 July 2026 at 12:00. Arthur J Gallagher was awarded the contract on 31 July 2026 for £73,160 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The procurement was recorded as a services requirement, with a single award and no lot-level split. The published data identifies the selected supplier and awarded value, but does not set out separate quality or price weightings. The opportunity was marked as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This procurement confirms demand from Bath Spa University for specialist cyber insurance linked to organisational resilience. A credible future competitor would need to operate at a scale suitable for a university buyer, understand cyber-risk exposures in higher education and provide insurance cover aligned with resilience requirements. Experience in arranging or underwriting cyber insurance would be central, along with the ability to work through an established insurance brokerage framework and meet its call-off requirements. The selected supplier was identified as a large organisation, indicating that the buyer’s requirement was suited to an established provider rather than a small or community-based firm. Relevant businesses should position themselves around specialist cyber-risk expertise, dependable insurance capacity and framework-based public sector delivery.
