## Summary

Oxford Direct Services Limited appointed consultancy to review its insurance arrangements and provide insurance advisory services. The requirement concerns insurance services, covering the buyer’s arrangements rather than the provision of an insurance policy. The recorded delivery location is the United Kingdom; Oxford Direct Services is based in Oxford. The procurement was organised as one lot, covering the insurance consultancy and review requirement.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Oxford Direct Services used a below-threshold limited competition. Arthur J. Gallagher Insurance Brokers Limited was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 9 October 2026 and runs from 9 October 2026 to 9 October 2027, with an option to extend by one further year, to a maximum end date of 8 October 2028. The contract value is £60,000 excluding VAT and £72,000 including VAT. The published information does not set out evaluation criteria or a separate award date.

For future requirements of this kind, a credible competitor would need to combine insurance-market knowledge with the ability to review an organisation’s existing insurance arrangements and provide practical consultancy advice. The buyer selected a large insurance brokerage, indicating that an established insurance intermediary can meet the requirement; the published information does not describe specific accreditations, staffing levels or technical thresholds. Suppliers should be prepared to compete through a limited competition for a focused advisory engagement, rather than treating this as a general insurance placement opportunity. Experience advising organisations on their insurance programmes and communicating findings clearly would be relevant to demonstrating fit with Oxford Direct Services’ requirement.
