Summary of the contracting process

Rother District Council has completed a tender process for insurance coverage and associated services, specifically targeting Lot 1 - Property, within the insurance services category (CPV 66510000). The procurement, conducted under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 via a mini-competition through the YPO DPS 1198 Insurance Placement framework, resulted in the awarding of the contract to Protector Insurance. The contract will operate from 1 April 2025 to 1 April 2028, with a total value of £98,906.70. This procurement was conducted using a selective method, calling off from a framework agreement, with delivery in the South East region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the insurance sector looking to expand their operations, especially those experienced in property insurance coverage. The procurement method favoured small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), implying prospects for businesses of varying sizes to bid in similar future competitions. With the involvement of a large-scale supplier like Protector Insurance, smaller firms can draw insights into competitive pricing and service standards required by public authorities such as Rother District Council. Businesses keen on exploring contracts within public frameworks should consider such opportunities to gain experience and establish a foothold in the public procurement landscape.
