The procurement, conducted through an open procedure, was managed without prior market engagement, leveraging the mature insurance market in Northern Ireland and the wider UK. Key aspects of the contract, valued at £180,000, include comprehensive insurance services such as professional indemnity, management liability, and cyber security, among others. Marsh Limited was successfully awarded the contract set to commence on 1st April 2026 with a possible extension until 31st March 2029. The award was finalised on 11th March 2026, with services to be delivered primarily in Northern Ireland. This procurement presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in insurance services, particularly those adept in brokerage and claims handling within the public sector. The focus on multi-faceted insurance coverage promises enhanced business continuity, potentially appealing to large-scale enterprises and experienced insurance providers. As Marsh Limited has previously demonstrated proficiency in such services, other similar businesses without a significant presence in Northern Ireland might consider this sector for future tender opportunities, especially given the prominence of public contracts in this region. ## Notice CITB NI wishes to appoint a provider for Insurance and Brokerage Services for a one year period with two further 12 month optional extension periods. The purpose of this competition will be to service the insurance needs of CITB NI, an Arm's Length Body of the Department for the Economy. The following are the main requirements: (A) Insurance Brokerage and Renewals of the following by 1 April 2026 and in the second year by 1 April 2027: - Property and contents Damage (including business interruption); - Cyber Security - Public and Products Liability including excess public liability; - Professional Indemnity - Management Liability - Business Travel and Personal Accident. - Engineering - Engineering Plant - Motor Fleet Insurance; and - Legal Expenses - Employers Liability (B) Brokerage and Claims Handling Services.
