Summary of the contracting process

Lancashire County Council has successfully completed the procurement process for a property insurance policy for Unit 3.2 of Lancashire Business Park (LCDL) under contract ID RG/CORP/LCC/24/271. This project falls under the industry category of insurance services. The procurement was necessary due to the lack of suitable tenders received in response to the open procedure, leading to direct market engagement by the broker to secure the policy. The awarded contract, valued at £1,200,000, was signed on 13th January 2025, and covers a period of up to four years through a Long Term Agreement (LTA). The insurance coverage has been provided by multiple suppliers, including AXA XL Insurance Company, Lloyds of London syndicates, Tokio Marine, Probitas 1492, Legal & Contingency, and Munich Re, ensuring a shared risk model across the providers.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses involved in the insurance sector, particularly those specialising in property insurance and risk management. The insurance coverage requires collaboration and risk-sharing among large insurance firms, highlighting the potential for growth through strategic partnerships and comprehensive service offerings. Companies with expertise in structured insurance policies and those capable of responding to stringent compliance standards are well-suited to compete and thrive in such procurement processes. The involvement of multiple renowned suppliers also underscores the importance of maintaining strong industry connections and networks to secure similar high-value contracts in the future.
