OJEU - F2 - Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Jobs and Business Glasgow is seeking insurance services for its organisation, assets, activities and subsidiary companies, together with statutory engineering inspections at sites in Glasgow. The requirement is divided into five areas: property owners’ insurance, management liability, professional indemnity, engineering inspection, and combined liability. The main service category is insurance services (CPV 66510000), with engineering inspection included as a separate service. Insurance cover is intended to protect the authority and its wider group, while the inspection lot covers statutory checks at relevant locations. Successful insurer or insurers will need to work in a tripartite relationship with Jobs and Business Glasgow and its appointed insurance broker. The opportunity is suitable for businesses providing commercial insurance underwriting, engineering inspection, or both.

The procurement has reached tender: Jobs and Business Glasgow invited offers through a selective competitive procedure with negotiation, using written submissions. Bids must be submitted by 3 September 2026 at 12:00. At least three candidates are required for the second stage, with invitations planned for 4 September 2026; the authority reserves the right to award without further negotiation. Each lot runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027, with an option to extend by up to two years on a one-year-plus-one-year basis. Quality accounts for 40% and price for 60%; variants are not allowed. Lots 1 to 5 may be bid for. The required insurance levels are £5 million employers’ liability, £10 million public liability and £5 million professional indemnity. Lots 1, 2, 3 and 5 also require an A-minus or equivalent credit rating.

This opportunity suits reputable insurers regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority to underwrite insurance business in the UK, particularly those with strong financial standing and the capacity to provide property, management liability, professional indemnity and combined liability cover. Bidders for the engineering inspection lot need UKAS accreditation for the relevant services, making accredited inspection providers the appropriate specialists for that work. Suppliers must be able to maintain the required employers’ liability, public liability and professional indemnity insurance arrangements, either already or before any contract begins. The authority also requires staff names and qualifications, so bidders should have suitably qualified personnel available for delivery. Insurance suppliers must be prepared to work directly with both Jobs and Business Glasgow and its insurance broker, and to support statutory inspections where applicable.
