Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "Material Damage & Property Owners Liability Insurance" was conducted by Govan Housing Association Limited, located in Glasgow, UK. This tender falls under the 'Insurance services' category and was initiated as an open procedure, adhering to the legal framework CELEX 32014L0024. The contracting phase has been completed, and the contract was awarded on 1st October 2025 to Allied World Assurance Company for a value of £1,430,000. The services involve providing insurance coverage for material damage, loss of rent, alternative accommodation, and property owner’s liability. This project was primarily intended for delivery in the Glasgow area (UKM82 region), with the procurement officially endorsed by the GPA.

This tender provides substantial business growth potential for large-scale insurance firms, particularly those with a strong presence in the UK and the ability to meet stringent quality and sustainability criteria. The open procurement method invited wide-ranging participation, though requirements specified that only insurers rated 'A' by agencies such as Standard & Poor's or AM Best could participate, effectively excluding insurance brokers. With an emphasis on policy cover, claims service, and sustainability, businesses that excel in delivering comprehensive insurance packages with competitive pricing stand to gain from such opportunities.
