Summary of the contracting process

Anchor Hanover Group procured employee medical insurance for its workforce. The requirement is a service contract covering insurance provision rather than goods, construction or consultancy. The selected service is classified as insurance services. Delivery covers England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. The buyer is Anchor Hanover Group, based in Bradford. This opportunity is relevant to insurers, health insurance providers and intermediaries able to design and administer medical insurance for employees across a geographically dispersed organisation. It may also suit providers with established UK-wide claims, member support and employer account-management capability.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to AVIVA HEALTH UK LIMITED. It used a below-threshold procedure; the recorded procurement method detail does not identify a more specific route. The requirement was evaluated as a single completed lot, with the published information identifying the service and supplier but no detailed scoring basis. The contract was signed on 1 June 2026 and runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2027. Its value is £44,160 excluding VAT and £52,992 including VAT. The contract is active. AVIVA HEALTH UK LIMITED is the only awarded supplier identified, and the award covers insurance services delivered across England for Anchor Hanover Group employees.

This award shows that Anchor Hanover Group buys employee medical insurance as a defined, organisation-wide service rather than as a local site requirement. A credible future competitor would need to provide employer medical insurance at comparable operational scale, with the ability to support employees across England through consistent enrolment, policy administration, claims handling and member communications. The selected supplier is classified as a large organisation, indicating that scale and established delivery capacity are relevant signals for this requirement. Insurers and specialist health-benefits providers with a broad UK service network, strong employer account management and experience administering workforce medical cover would be best placed to use this procurement as a market benchmark when assessing the buyer’s requirements.
