The scope covers property, legal liability and other general insurance, as well as cyber, terrorism (Pool Re and non-Pool Re), directors’ and officers’, professional indemnity, crime and alternative risk financing. Services include arranging insurance cover, brokerage where applicable, professional advice, claims management and loss control. The work is for the Association’s insurance requirements and is associated with Doune and the Stirling area. This is a broad insurance procurement, with distinct specialist lots for different risk classes; insurers and brokers can assess which parts match their underwriting, placement or risk-management expertise. The process is at the planning stage: the buyer has stated its intention to procure, but this record is not an invitation to tender. The buyer expects to use a Competitive Flexible Procedure, with bidders selected on the basis of pre-qualification questionnaire responses. The contract is planned to start on 1 April 2027 for three years, with an option for the Association to extend by up to two further years at its discretion. The estimated overall value is £506,000. There are eight lots, separating general property and liability risks from cyber, two types of terrorism cover, directors’ and officers’, professional indemnity, crime and alternative risk financing. The planned award basis is the most economically advantageous tender; detailed evaluation criteria are expected in the later tender documents. A further notice is anticipated on 22 October 2026. The procurement is suited to qualified, experienced insurance brokers and direct insurers, as the buyer explicitly invites both types of provider. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate the capability and capacity to deliver their chosen risk areas, alongside adequate financial and economic standing and relevant experience. Brokerage is within scope where applicable, and the service package also calls for professional advice, claims handling and loss-control capability, so firms able to combine insurance placement or underwriting with these supporting services may be well placed. The separate lots allow specialists to focus on relevant classes, from housing property and liability to cyber, terrorism, professional indemnity, crime and alternative risk financing. Businesses considering a response should prepare complete pre-qualification information; selection is planned to rely on those responses. The buyer has not identified specific accreditations. ## Notice The scope of the Contract includes the provision of insurance cover, brokerage services (where applicable), professional advice, claims management and loss control services for property, legal liabilities and other general insurances as required by Rural Stirling Housing Association Limited for a period of three years commencing 01.04.2027, with the option to extend by up to a further two years at Rural Stirling Housing Association Limited's sole discretion.
