Summary of the contracting process

The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) is currently seeking tenders for Claims Management Services, a critical requirement within the insurance sector. This procurement process is in the tender stage, with submissions closing on 25th February 2019. The contracting authority, based in London, England, has allocated a budget of £500,000 for this high-profile service, which encompasses management of claims for various incidents, predominantly within the UK but also on a global scale. The procurement method being employed is an open procedure due to the contract value being above the threshold.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in claims management and insurance services, particularly those capable of managing both litigated and non-litigated claims. Firms with experience in handling bespoke requirements for high-profile clients, along with the ability to coordinate additional service providers like loss adjusters and legal experts, would be well-suited to compete. SMEs are particularly encouraged to participate, potentially allowing them to expand their capabilities and client portfolio in a competitive market.

Notice Title

Claims Management Services

Notice Description

The BBC corporate insurance agreements extend to the entire BBC group including commercial subsidiaries and some BBC Commissioned Independent Productions (for further details on the BBC, its subsidiaries and both public service broadcasting and commercial activities, please visit: http://www.bbc.co.uk/aboutthebbc/. Since 1996, the BBC insurance agreements have incorporated a substantial self-insured retention. External Claims Management Service Providers have been retained over that period to manage the claims falling within the retention. The requirement is for a quality claims management service capable of responding effectively to the wide variety of claims circumstances generated by the account. This will include litigated and non-litigated cases. Claims handling will not be on a delegated authority basis although the BBC may agree delegated authority for particular classes/types of claim during the course of the contract. The vast majority of the claims will be UK based. However, given the global nature of the BBC, incidents and claims will occasionally arise outside the UK. The requirement includes instruction and management of other service providers such as loss adjusters, investigators, lawyers and experts to provide specialist assistance on individual cases. The successful provider will have demonstrated the ability to deal with the BBC group's bespoke needs, addressing the sensitivities which are inevitable with such a high profile organisation. The BBC has determined that the requirement is not suitable for dividing into lots. Accordingly the BBC intends to award a single contract for the requirement. Additional information: Where there is more than one economic operator, the BBC reserves the right to require a grouping of economic operators to take a particular legal form or to requires a single economic operator to take primary liability or to require that each party undertakes joint and several liability.
