Summary of the contracting process

Wychavon District Council procured cyber insurance cover as a service. The requirement is for insurance protection against cyber-related risks affecting the council’s operations, systems and information. The buying organisation is Wychavon District Council, based at the Civic Centre in Pershore, Worcestershire. The service is delivered for the council’s activities in the United Kingdom. The procurement is categorised as insurance services, covering the council’s cyber insurance requirement rather than general insurance brokerage or unrelated technology services. This is relevant to insurers, insurance brokers and specialist cyber-risk providers able to arrange and support public-sector cyber insurance cover for a local authority.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Wychavon District Council selected ARTHUR J. GALLAGHER INSURANCE BROKERS LIMITED for the single requirement. The award was made on 24 June 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract runs from 24 June 2026 to 23 June 2027. Its value is £135,162.32 including tax, and it is below the applicable threshold. The process used a below-threshold procurement route. The award is active and the contract is active. The recorded procurement information identifies insurance services as the requirement; the award covers the whole cyber insurance requirement rather than separate awarded services.

This procurement is useful market evidence for insurers and brokers targeting local-authority cyber cover. The successful supplier is a large insurance broker, indicating that the requirement can suit an intermediary with the capacity to place and manage specialist cyber insurance rather than only an insurer underwriting risks directly. A credible competitor for this buyer would need strong cyber-risk understanding, access to suitable insurance markets, and the ability to structure cover for a district council’s public-sector operations. It would also need to manage policy administration and provide dependable support throughout the contract. Experience serving councils or comparable public bodies would help demonstrate an understanding of public-sector exposure, governance and procurement requirements.
