Summary of the contracting process

The recent public procurement process overseen by Bristol City Council, identified as "Social Care or Education Placement - DNYY1129," falls under the services category specifically related to health and social work services. Located in the United Kingdom, this procurement is part of the light-touch regime and was conducted directly without competition, indicating it is below the threshold. The procurement process moved through the award stage, with Carbrey Care Ltd being successfully awarded the contract on 6th May 2025. The contract commenced on 9th May 2025 and is set to conclude on 31st March 2026, with a gross value of GBP 311,859.90. The relevant procurement covered the UKK1 region, encapsulating areas around southwestern England.

This procurement represents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the healthcare and social services sectors, especially those capable of fulfilling service contracts with public authorities. The lack of competitive bidding in this instance suggests that qualified businesses, particularly those familiar with direct procurement processes, can strategically position themselves for similar opportunities in the future. Companies possessing the infrastructure to deliver comprehensive social or educational care services can benefit significantly from engaging with sub-central public authorities like Bristol City Council, aiming to expand their business networks and service offerings in the public sector.
