Summary of the contracting process

St Helens College has successfully awarded a contract for the provision of insurance services under the Crescent Purchasing Consortium Framework CPC/MN/02/2024. The contract, valued at £924,633.9, will run from 1st August 2025 to 31st July 2028, with a possible extension of up to two years. This procurement process followed a selective method through a call-off from an existing framework agreement. Key dates included the tender period, which concluded on 16th June 2025, and the award date on 30th June 2025. The service will be delivered within the North West region of the United Kingdom, under the financial and insurance services category.

This tender provides an opportunity for large-scale insurance providers to collaborate with educational institutions, given its exclusivity to such entities due to the selective procurement method employed. While SMEs were not specifically targeted, the awarded contract with Arthur J Gallagher Insurance Brokers Ltd demonstrates a preference for established firms with extensive experience in the sector. Businesses with the capacity to deliver comprehensive insurance solutions and navigate framework agreements will find this kind of opportunity appealing.
