UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Lancashire County Council bought insurance brokerage and consultancy services for itself and Lancashire Renewables Ltd. The work covers placing insurance, supporting claims management, advising on risk and providing related brokerage services. The requirement is for services delivered in Lancashire, in north-west England. It concerns insurance broking rather than the provision of insurance cover itself, so relevant suppliers are firms able to arrange policies and support the client’s insurance and risk-management needs.

The procurement is complete and awarded to Arthur J. Gallagher Insurance Brokers Limited. Lancashire County Council used a direct award without competition under a below-threshold procedure. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026 and runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2028. Its value is £90,000. The procurement was a single lot, covering the brokerage and consultancy requirement for the council and Lancashire Renewables Ltd. The award is active, and the contract is active. No evaluation criteria are reported.

For a future requirement from Lancashire County Council, a credible competitor would need to demonstrate the ability to place insurance for a public authority and its related organisation, provide practical claims-management support, and offer risk advice alongside brokerage services. Suppliers should be equipped to coordinate these services across more than one client entity and to support the client through both insurance placement and subsequent claims activity. The selected provider was a large insurance brokerage, indicating that the buyer has used an established broker for this requirement. Firms with relevant public-sector brokerage experience and the operational capacity to deliver a joined-up service across Lancashire County Council and Lancashire Renewables Ltd would be best placed to compete when a comparable requirement returns.
