Can I win this?

Competition

Framework

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work. The £500,000,000 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

Services will be offered to the whole of the public sector to enable the sourcing of all aspects of insurance services, including but not limited to: brokerage advice, insurance cover, claims management services. Management of insurance and risk management programmes. Ranging from complex combined business insurance programmes to one off renewals and urgent insurance coverage.
