What the notice says

Nest was seeking an insurer to partner with to develop a bulk deferred annuity. We anticipate that the supplier appointed to partner with Nest for the co-design period would also be appointed to be the provider of the bulk annuity to Nest for an exclusive period. Due to the complexity of the service and contract, the procurement was run as a full over threshold competitive flexible procedure with various stages.
