Summary of the contracting process

Trafford College, part of the Trafford and Stockport College Group, procured insurance and associated services through its college insurance arrangement. The requirement covers insurance services (CPV 66510000) for the college’s activities and assets, with delivery centred on Trafford College in Manchester and coverage extending across the United Kingdom, Europe, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. This is a services requirement for an insurance provider or broker able to arrange and support suitable policies across these geographical areas. The buyer is Trafford College, and the procurement was run for the wider college group.

The procurement is complete and was awarded following an open mini-competition under the CPC Insurance and Associated Services arrangement. Bids closed at 6pm on 5 June 2026, and the award was made on 23 July 2026 to Arthur J. Gallagher Insurance Brokers Ltd. The recorded awarded value is £0 GBP. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2029. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The evaluation used the procurement requirements for insurance and associated services under the open procedure, with the selected supplier appointed for the full three-year period.

This award demonstrates established demand from a further-education college for a broad insurance and associated-services capability covering a complex, geographically wide operating footprint. Suppliers preparing for a future requirement from Trafford College would need to show credible insurance broking or provision experience, the ability to place and manage multiple classes of cover, and the capacity to support a college group throughout a multi-year contract. Experience serving public-sector or education organisations would help demonstrate understanding of institutional risks, governance and service expectations. The requirement was considered suitable for SMEs, so a specialist broker or suitably capable smaller provider could be well placed, provided it can secure appropriate market capacity and manage UK and international coverage.
