Summary of the contracting process

LIVIN HOUSING LIMITED, a public authority operating under sub-central government, has awarded a contract under the framework for the Simple Tenants' Contents Insurance Scheme. The procurement process involved a selective method that was below the threshold, highlighting a non-competitive approach. Ecclesiastical Insurance Office PLC, a large-scale supplier, has been appointed to handle the insurance services, with operations commencing on 1st May 2026 through to 30th April 2027, with potential renewals extending until 2030. The contract was signed on 12th February 2026, with the award active and valued at GBP 35,998.32.

This procurement process opens avenues for businesses specialising in insurance services to potentially engage with similar frameworks and schemes. Companies with expertise in providing insurance solutions, particularly those with robust operations and the capability to serve large sub-central government entities, would be well-positioned to explore growth opportunities in this domain. Moreover, firms capable of collaborating effectively within frameworks such as the Northern Housing Consortium stand to benefit from repeated periods of contract renewal, ensuring sustained business development in providing tailored insurance services.
