## Summary

Rural Stirling Housing Association plans to procure insurance and related risk services for its property, legal liabilities and other general insurable risks, with separate requirements covering 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 divided into eight lots, allowing suppliers to focus on different insurance lines. The buyer is based in Doune, Perthshire, and the services are for the Association’s requirements in that area. This is a services procurement (CPV 66510000). The planned scope offers a fit for insurance brokers and direct insurers able to serve a housing association across a range of property, liability and specialist risks.

This is at the planning stage: the Association has stated an intention to procure, but has not yet invited tenders. It expects to use a Competitive Flexible Procedure, selecting bidders on the basis of pre-qualification SPD responses. The buyer expects the next notice on 22 October 2026. The planned contract is for three years from 1 April 2027, with an option for the Association to extend by up to two further years. The estimated procurement value is £506,000. The eight lots cover property and general risks, cyber, terrorism through Pool Re, terrorism outside Pool Re, directors’ and officers’, professional indemnity, crime, and alternative risk financing. The contract is expected to be awarded on the basis of the most economically advantageous tender; specific evaluation criteria are to be set out in the future tender and contract documents.

The planned procurement is aimed at suitably qualified and experienced insurance brokers and direct insurers. Suppliers should be able to provide insurance cover and, where applicable, brokerage, alongside professional advice, claims handling and loss control. The buyer says bidders will need the capability and capacity to perform the contract, as well as sufficient financial and economic standing and relevant experience. This points to suppliers with the resources to manage a multi-line insurance requirement for a housing association, whether across the full range or in specialist areas such as cyber, terrorism, professional indemnity or alternative risk financing. Firms considering participation should be ready to provide complete pre-qualification SPD responses with all relevant information when the competition reaches the market. The planned lot structure may suit providers concentrating on particular classes of risk.
