Summary of the contracting process

The current tender process, titled "YPO - 1198 Insurance Placement DPS II," is being led by YPO in collaboration with ESPO and NEPO. This initiative is aimed at establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for a comprehensive range of insurance services for the public sector within the United Kingdom. The procurement falls under the "Financial and insurance services" category, engaging various segments such as accident, health, liability, and credit insurance services, among others. The tender is in the active stage and forms part of a selective procurement method, described as a Restricted procedure (above threshold). The DPS is open from 1st May 2024 to 30th April 2034, allowing potential providers to submit bids anytime after the first round, with an initial deadline on 21st March 2024 at 14:00. The system, subject to annual reviews and KPI evaluations, offers a substantial potential contract value of GBP 3 billion.

This tender presents significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for service providers in the insurance industry. Businesses specialising in various insurance sectors, including accident and health, legal insurance, and claims adjustment, are well-suited to compete. With YPO's initiative targeting all public sector organisations, SMEs can leverage this opportunity as the tender is accommodating to smaller enterprises, although it excludes VCSE requirements. Companies with a strong track record in delivering diverse insurance solutions and adept in meeting public sector needs will find this DPS an advantageous platform for expansion and increased market presence in the UK public sector landscape.
