Insurance Placement Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS)
The insurance market is dominated by a few market leaders who can offer all types of classes of insurance. However, there are a big number of insurers who are niche or specialist, who do not have the capacity to deliver all the insurance requirements but will be able to offer competitive quotes on individual lines. Also the nature of the insurance market is cyclical, characterised by fluctuating availability of insurers. Insurers join and leave the public sector depending on the market conditions.
The insurance placement DPS has been set up to benefit both insurers and tendering customers. The approach allows you to:
- customise your requirement
- access dynamic and fluid insurance market
- increase competition and shape the market as insurers can join an any time during the DPS's period of validity
- procure any type of cover including highly specialist and niche insurance
- streamline the process as both insurers and the types of covers can be easily identified
- create a level playing field for insurers
YPO's team is continuously working with the insurance industry to ensure the DPS offers the best route to the insurance market
