## Summary

Shire Housing Association is buying property insurance services for its buildings and related property risks. The cover includes all-risks buildings insurance, loss of rent and alternative accommodation, property owners’ liability, and terrorism insurance. The service is intended to protect the association against damage to its property and associated liabilities, and to cover accommodation or rental losses. The delivery location is in Scotland. The procurement is for insurance cover and associated services, rather than building works or the supply of physical goods. The buyer is Shire Housing Association, with Howden UK Insurance Brokers acting on its behalf in the procurement.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure. The procurement is divided into one lot covering buildings insurance, loss of rent and alternative accommodation, and property owners’ liability. The buyer set the bid deadline as 15 January 2027 at 12:00 UTC; the enquiry deadline is not stated in the process information. The planned contract period is three years, with two optional one-year extensions, giving a possible total term of five years. The estimated value is £236,637. The published evaluation basis is not detailed beyond the selection requirement that providers hold at least an A rating from Standard & Poor’s, AM Best or Fitch. Bids must be submitted in English, electronically, and variants are not allowed.

This opportunity is aimed at established insurance providers able to underwrite property risks and provide cover across buildings, rental interruption, alternative accommodation, property owners’ liability and terrorism. Eligible supplier types include insurance companies, Lloyd’s of London underwriters and managing general agents. A minimum A rating from Standard & Poor’s, AM Best or Fitch is required, so the opportunity suits firms with the financial strength and recognised credit standing to meet that threshold. Suppliers should also be able to name the staff who would deliver the contract and provide their qualifications. The single-lot scope calls for a provider capable of covering the associated insurance requirements as one package, rather than bidding separately for individual risk categories.
