Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council, a public authority under the sub-central government, has completed a procurement process for a "Social Care or Education Placement" contract. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically focusing on health and social work services. The process was executed using a direct procurement method, below the threshold without competition, under a special regime for light touch. The award and subsequent contract were finalised with Hartcliffe Nursing Home, located in Bristol, indicating a strong focus on local procurement. The contract commenced on 14 April 2025 and will conclude on 31 March 2030, with the terms signed on 10 April 2025, amounting to a value of £256,410 GBP.

The nature of the procurement method, being direct and below threshold, suggests opportunities for established local suppliers who can offer competitive and high-quality service delivery without the need for a rigorous competitive process. Companies looking to engage with local government contracts in the UK, specifically within the health and social work sectors, stand to benefit significantly from such opportunities.
