UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Tamworth Borough Council appointed an insurer to provide its Simple Tenants’ Contents Insurance Scheme for council tenants. This is an insurance service intended to provide contents cover through the council’s tenants’ scheme. The requirement sits within the Northern Housing Consortium’s Simple Tenants’ Contents Insurance Scheme Framework. Delivery is associated with Tamworth Borough Council in Tamworth, with the award record identifying the delivery country as the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Ecclesiastical Insurance Office Public Limited Company. The award was made on 28 September 2026 and the contract was signed that day. The contract value is £30,734.44. The stated initial contract period runs from 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2027, with three individual 12-month extensions available and a maximum extent date of 30 September 2030. This was a below-threshold award under a framework, using a selective route; the record describes it as non-competitive. The procurement was organised as one lot. No award evaluation criteria are recorded.

This award demonstrates demand from Tamworth Borough Council for tenants’ contents insurance delivered through the Northern Housing Consortium’s dedicated framework. A credible competitor for the same requirement would need to be able to provide an insurance scheme suited to council tenants and to operate through that framework route. The selected supplier was an established, large insurance company, indicating that the buyer appointed an insurer rather than a general service provider. The requirement is a focused insurance service rather than a broad council insurance programme; suppliers whose core capability is tenants’ contents cover and framework-based public-sector delivery are the closest fit. The award provides a benchmark for the scale and procurement route of this buyer’s requirement.
