Summary of the contracting process

Rutherglen & Cambuslang Housing Association sought property insurance services for its housing portfolio. The cover comprises all-risks buildings insurance, loss of rent and alternative accommodation, property owners’ liability, and terrorism cover. The requirement is for insurance services (CPV 66515200), with delivery in South Lanarkshire. The buyer is Rutherglen & Cambuslang Housing Association, with Howden UK Insurance Brokers acting in connection with the procurement. The cover brings together building and liability risks with protection against rental loss and the costs of alternative accommodation, alongside terrorism insurance. Suppliers with relevant property insurance products should assess whether their underwriting capacity and financial rating meet the stated requirements.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure. The tender deadline was 14 January 2027 at 12:00 UTC; the bid opening was scheduled for 15 January 2027 at 12:00 UTC. The contract period was three years, with two optional one-year extensions, giving a possible total term of five years. The estimated value is £371,625. There is one lot covering all-risks buildings insurance, loss of rent and alternative accommodation, and property owners’ liability. Terrorism insurance is also included in the overall requirement. Variants were not allowed, and bids had to be submitted electronically in English. The stated evaluation information identifies minimum insurer financial-rating and supplier eligibility requirements; the detailed award criteria are contained in the procurement documentation.

The opportunity is expressly open to insurance companies, Lloyd’s of London underwriters and managing general agents. Providers must hold a minimum “A” rating from Standard & Poor’s, AM Best or Fitch, making financial strength a threshold qualification. Suppliers should be able to underwrite a combined housing-property programme covering buildings, rental interruption and alternative accommodation, property owners’ liability and terrorism risks. The scope is suited to firms able to manage multiple related insurance exposures for a housing association, rather than providers specialising only in a single narrow line of cover. Bidders also had to provide the names and qualifications of staff assigned to the contract. The service requirements are grouped into one lot, so bidders need capacity to address the complete insurance package rather than choosing among separate lots.
