## Summary

City Hospitals Independent Commercial Enterprises Limited procured specialist life insurance brokerage and pension consultancy services. The requirement covers insurance brokerage, with the stated purpose of supporting the organisation’s life insurance and pension arrangements. The buying organisation is based at Sunderland Royal Hospital in Sunderland, and the service is delivered in the North East of England. This is a professional services opportunity for firms that advise organisations on life insurance and pensions, arrange or broker suitable insurance cover, and provide related consultancy. The procurement concerns services rather than goods, construction or facilities management. The selected supplier is a commercial insurance and risk advisory business, indicating that the requirement is suited to established specialist advisers rather than general administrative or procurement support providers.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. One lot was awarded to AON UK Limited. The award became active on 27 July 2026, and the contract was signed on that date. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029. Its value is £66,000 excluding VAT and £79,200 including VAT. The award covers insurance brokerage services for the life insurance brokerage and pension consultancy requirement. The process used a below-threshold route without competitive tendering, so suppliers were not evaluated through an open bidding exercise. The contract is active and the procurement has reached its final awarded stage.

This procurement provides a clear indication of the buyer’s need for specialist advice covering life insurance brokerage and pension consultancy over a multi-year service arrangement. Suppliers best placed for comparable future requirements would have demonstrable expertise in broking life insurance, advising on pension matters, and managing the associated employer relationship from initial advice through ongoing support. Credibility would also depend on the capacity to serve a hospital-based organisation in the North East, coordinate insurance and pensions advice, and provide dependable specialist consultancy rather than a one-off transaction. A competitor should be able to show relevant organisational clients, experienced advisers, strong insurer and pension-provider relationships, and the operational capacity to manage a sustained advisory service.
