Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by FAIR4ALL FINANCE LIMITED, a public undertaking based in London, United Kingdom, revolves around the "Home Contents Pilot: Proposition Design Support". This process targets consultancy services within the insurance and business management fields, aiming to address the needs of financially vulnerable individuals, particularly social tenants. While initially active and set to begin contract fulfilment from 23 March until 22 July 2026, the procurement faced cancellation due to limited market interest leading to a rescoping of its requirements. The tender was originally part of the Government's Financial Inclusion Strategy, with submissions managed via the In-Tend portal until its cancellation date on 19 March 2026.

Despite its cancellation, this tender presented an opportunity for consultancy firms specialising in insurance, research and development, and business management services. Companies adept at swiftly executing projects and demonstrating an understanding of the social tenant insurance landscape would have been ideal candidates. The potential to collaborate on developing innovative and tailored insurance propositions for social tenants, aligning with governmental financial inclusion objectives, offered a strategic avenue for organisational growth and market positioning within the community-conscious insurance sector.

Notice Title

Home Contents Pilot: Proposition Design Support

Notice Description

Fair4All Finance is requesting proposals for an organisation to lead the development of proposition design principles for our Home Contents Insurance Pilot. The challenge: Our analysis shows that only 30% of people in financially vulnerable circumstances have contents insurance, as opposed to 46% of all UK adults. For the social tenant cohort specifically, there are few contents insurance products that serve the needs of this group, and uptake of the ones that exist is low. Alongside this, this cohort is potentially at greater risk of exposure to adverse events which contents insurance may help protect against. Our Home Contents Insurance Pilot, delivered as part of the Government's Financial Inclusion Strategy, will support the market to develop and deliver one or more home contents insurance propositions for social tenants, delivered alongside the tenancy agreement. We will be launching a subsidy fund to support this later in the year. Prior to launching the fund, we are working with key stakeholders to define the ideal product and delivery mechanism attributes from a tenant (and social landlord) perspective, which will support the setting of expectations for the fund applicants.
