| Title | Leicestershire Academies Insurance Schem |
| Description | Leicestershire Academies Insurance Scheme Insurance scheme for academies and maintained schools in Leicestershire. |
| Status | complete |
| Procedure type | direct |
| Procedure | Direct award |
| Reason for this procedure | The Council appointed insurance broker undertook a market engagement exercise to identify insurers to provide cover for he Council ran insurance scheme for Leicestershire academies and maintained schools. Following the exercise, the broker confirmed that only one insurer was willing and able to provide a quotation for the required insurance cover. As a result, there is no effective competition available in the market for this specific requirement. The award is therefore on a single-supplier basis due to the absence of an alternative supplier in the market. |
