Summary of the contracting process

West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust procured insurance services covering liability, motor fleet and property policies, with insurance brokerage services as the stated category. The requirement is for renewal of the Trust’s insurance arrangements. Delivery is associated with Welwyn Garden City and the East of England. This is a service contract for suppliers able to arrange and support insurance cover across these three areas for a hospital trust.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 23 June 2026 to Willis Towers Watson. The award value is £184,410. The contract runs from 3 August 2026 to 2 August 2029. The Trust selected a supplier through a direct call-off from the CCSRM6323 framework, using a selective process. The original estimated contract value was £185,000, with a stated minimum of £50,000. The tender deadline was 25 June 2026. The procurement was not divided into lots. Small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises were marked as unsuitable. The published information does not set out a separate evaluation weighting or scoring basis.

For insurance brokers and insurers serving NHS organisations, this award demonstrates demand from West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust for a combined liability, motor fleet and property insurance arrangement. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need the capacity to assess and arrange cover across all three areas, understand the operational and risk context of a hospital trust, and manage the brokerage relationship over a multi-year contract. The route used was a call-off from the CCSRM6323 framework, so framework access and the ability to compete effectively through that route are commercially relevant. The buyer’s decision to use one supplier for this package also indicates that a provider able to coordinate the full portfolio may be better placed than a firm offering only one line of cover.
