Summary of the contracting process

Lancashire Constabulary has recently completed the procurement process for the provision of Motor and Liability Insurance Services from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2027. The procurement, valued at £8,000,000, is classified under insurance related to transport, with specific focus on motor vehicle and damage or loss insurance services. Due to technical reasons and the organisation's high-risk profile, the procurement was conducted using a limited method, specifically a negotiated procedure without prior publication. The primary contractor, QBE Insurance Co (UK) Ltd, will deliver services to the North West region of the United Kingdom, with the award of the contract being effective from 5th March 2025.

The tender for insurance services presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in high-risk insurance solutions. While this specific contract may not offer immediate opportunities for smaller enterprises or voluntary sector organisations, businesses with advanced capabilities in tailoring insurance products for complex needs could benefit from similar future tenders. Larger firms with the necessary technical expertise and market engagement experience in insurance for law enforcement entities would be particularly well-suited to compete in this space.
