## Summary

The Northern Ireland Housing Executive, a central government public authority based in Belfast, has initiated a procurement process for the "P0680 - Provision of a Claims Handling Service." This competitive flexible procedure falls under the services category, specifically within insurance services, and is intended for execution in the UK, starting from 4 May 2026 and potentially extending to 3 May 2031. The procurement process was active as of 12 February 2026, with the tender period ending on 9 March 2026. Unfortunately, due to incomplete bids failing at the Qualification Stage, the tender was cancelled on 26 March 2026. Consideration of a re-procurement strategy is underway.

This procurement presented a unique opportunity for businesses skilled in public liability claims handling and evaluation services to expand their portfolio. Firms specialising in insurance claims and those capable of meeting the quality (40% emphasis) and cost requirements (60% emphasis) would have been well-positioned to bid competitively. The contract’s value was significant, with a maximum gross estimate of £156,000, making it attractive for companies wanting to cement their position or enter the Northern Irish public sector market. Future opportunities may arise following the reassessment of the procurement strategy, offering renewed chances for suitable businesses to engage with the Northern Ireland Housing Executive.

## Notice

Tenders are invited for the provision of a public liability claims handling and evaluation service as described in the Specification and in accordance with the Housing Executive's Conditions of Contract included with the Tender Documentation.
