OJEU - F2 - Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Shire Housing Association is seeking insurance cover for its housing property. The requirement includes all-risks buildings insurance, cover for loss of rent and alternative accommodation, property owners’ liability, and terrorism insurance. This is an insurance services contract, intended to protect the association against property-related losses and liability. The buyer is Shire Housing Association, acting through Howden UK Insurance Brokers. Glasgow is the buyer’s location; the delivery area is identified as Glasgow City. The scope is grouped as one contract rather than separate insurance lots.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure, with bids submitted electronically. The submission deadline was 15 January 2027 at 12:00. The stated estimated value is £236,637. The initial contract period is three years, with two optional one-year extensions, giving a possible total period of five years. The evaluation period was scheduled to start on 18 January 2027 at 12:00, with bids to be opened at that time. The opportunity requires insurers to hold at least an A rating from Standard & Poor’s, AM Best or Fitch. Bids cannot include variants, and bidders must provide the names and qualifications of assigned staff.

This opportunity is suited to insurance companies, Lloyd’s of London underwriters and managing general agents. A prospective bidder needs to be able to arrange and underwrite property and liability cover, including all-risks buildings, loss of rent, alternative accommodation and terrorism risks. The minimum financial standing requirement is an A rating from Standard & Poor’s, AM Best or Fitch, so suppliers below that threshold are not eligible. Bidders must also identify the staff assigned to the contract and provide their qualifications. The combined insurance scope favours suppliers able to offer the required covers as a coordinated package and support a housing association’s property insurance needs over a multi-year contract.
