Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council is procuring insurance brokerage services on behalf of Chichester District Council. The appointed broker is responsible for managing the Council’s annual insurance renewal and insurance re-tendering processes. This includes using knowledge of the insurance market to identify suitable insurers with the financial standing and security needed to meet the Council’s requirements. The work is classified as insurance brokerage services and falls within the services category. Delivery is in the South East of England. The opportunity is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, making it relevant to specialist brokers as well as larger insurance intermediaries serving public sector clients.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. Arthur J Gallagher Insurance Brokers Ltd was awarded the contract on 31 January 2026 for £4,000. The contract runs from 1 February 2026 to 31 January 2031. The requirement covers the Council’s annual insurance renewal and insurance re-tendering activity. The award is active, and the contract period provides a defined term for the brokerage service. The buying organisation is Hampshire County Council, acting on behalf of Chichester District Council. The procurement’s stated value and awarded value are both £4,000.

This award demonstrates demand for a specialist public sector insurance broker able to manage recurring renewal and re-tendering work for a local authority. A credible competitor would need strong practical knowledge of the insurance market, experience of arranging annual insurance renewals and running competitive insurance exercises, and the ability to identify insurers that can demonstrate suitable financial standing and security. The work would suit a broker with established insurer relationships, sound market access and robust processes for assessing insurer suitability against a council’s requirements. Experience supporting councils or other public bodies would help demonstrate an understanding of governance, continuity, risk placement and accountable procurement.
