## Summary

The Education Authority is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process titled "Pre-Market Engagement for Insurance Brokerage Services and Associated Services," which falls under the industry category of Property Insurance Services. This scoping phase aims to gather information on the capabilities of contractors within the Insurance Brokerage market to better inform future procurement processes. The procurement covers the region of the United Kingdom, specifically Northern Ireland. Interested organisations are invited to complete and submit the required questionnaire by 3 pm, 20th August 2024. Any future notices related to this engagement are expected to be released by 20th September 2024.

This preliminary market engagement provides significant business growth opportunities for insurance brokerage firms with experience and capabilities in delivering property insurance services. Businesses well-suited to compete include those specialising in insurance brokerage, with the ability to meet the required scope of services and adapt to the specified procurement methods. Participating in this early stage allows businesses to showcase their expertise and potentially influence the formation of the formal procurement process to follow, thereby positioning themselves advantageously for subsequent tender opportunities initiated by the Education Authority.

## Notice

** This is not a tender exercise by the Education Authority**. The purpose of the preliminary market engagement exercise ("Exercise") is to understand the extent of Contractors in the Insurance Brokerage market and what their capabilities are regarding the delivery of the required scope of services. At this stage, any information gathered through this Exercise will inform internal business planning and any possible subsequent procurement process and will NOT be appraised in any future tender evaluation exercise. For the avoidance of doubt, this is the scoping phase and is not part of a formal procurement process. Interested participants should complete the questionnaire and upload to extenders by 3pm, 20th August 2024 or email to business.procure@eani.org.uk. Completed Questionnaires when returned via the eTendersNI platform must be done so by the Messaging function as an attachment. If you have any other questions that you would wish to raise, EA is happy to consider these also. Such queries should be submitted following the declaration on the questionnaire.
