## Summary

Highlands and Islands Enterprise, based in Inverness, has awarded a contract for Property Owners Liability Insurance for their Arnish property. This contract spans from 1 November 2024 to 31 October 2025. The procurement falls under the services category within the economic affairs sector. This procurement process utilised a limited method due to the absence of competitive interest owing to the specialised risk profile of the building. The award was made on 5 December 2024, following a prior absence of quotations via the Crown Commercial Services Insurance Services 3 DPS.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in high-risk insurance services. The contract was awarded to Allied World Assurance Company Ltd. Such opportunities are well-suited for large insurance firms capable of handling co-insurance arrangements and understanding the complex risk requirements associated with specific properties. Businesses with expertise in providing tailored insurance solutions for unique and challenging risk profiles would find such contracts beneficial for expanding their portfolio and demonstrating their capability to manage specialised insurance needs.
