UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

London Borough of Southwark procured medical malpractice insurance for schools. The service is insurance cover intended to protect schools against claims arising from medical malpractice. The work is for delivery in London, within the borough of Southwark. The process covered one lot and was bought by the council.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Arthur J Gallagher. The council used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 29 September 2026 and runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. Its value is £36,000 excluding VAT and £40,320 including VAT. The stated contract period is one year. The procurement covered a single lot; the award relates to that lot. The published procurement information identifies the service as medical insurance. No separate award date or evaluation criteria are recorded in the available process details.

This award shows Southwark’s demand for school medical malpractice insurance, bought through a limited competition and awarded to an insurance intermediary. Suppliers seeking to compete when this requirement next reaches the market would need to demonstrate that they can arrange suitable medical malpractice cover for schools and support the council’s insurance requirements. Credibility is likely to depend on access to appropriate insurance capacity and relevant experience serving education-sector clients, although the process does not set out specific qualifications, accreditations or technical thresholds. The requirement is a defined, borough-level insurance service rather than a broad programme of school operations, so insurers and brokers with experience placing public-sector or school-related liability cover are the closest fit.
