Summary of the contracting process

Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council procured actuarial services for its own requirements. The work covers the provision of professional actuarial advice and services, classified as actuarial services (CPV 66519600). It is a services contract rather than a goods supply or construction project. Delivery is within the Rhondda Cynon Taf area of Wales. The requirement was structured as a single lot and was sourced through a framework arrangement. This is relevant to actuarial firms and specialist professional-services providers able to support a Welsh local authority with ongoing actuarial work under a public-sector framework. The selected supplier, Aon Solutions UK Limited, is a large organisation, indicating that the requirement was suitable for a provider with established public-sector delivery capability and sufficient resources for a long-term service relationship.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a competitive selective process under a framework. Aon Solutions UK Limited was selected on 6 August 2026 for the single lot. The contract was signed on 18 September 2026 and runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2033. Its value is £966,000 excluding VAT, or £1,159,200 including VAT. The award and contract are above the applicable threshold. The procurement used a selective route rather than an open tender, with competition conducted through the framework. The award covers the full actuarial-services requirement, and the contract is active. A future signature milestone was scheduled for 24 August 2026, but the recorded signature date is 18 September 2026.

This award demonstrates established demand from Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council for a substantial, long-term actuarial-services capability. A credible future competitor would need qualified actuaries, robust technical systems and the capacity to provide consistent advice and outputs over a sustained public-sector engagement. Experience of working with local authorities would be commercially relevant, as would understanding public-sector governance, assurance and reporting requirements. Suppliers should also be able to operate effectively through a framework-based competitive process, prepare clear evidence of technical competence and manage the administrative demands of a selective procedure. The scale and duration point to a provider with resilient staffing, senior oversight, continuity arrangements and the financial and operational capacity to support the council throughout a multi-year contract.
