Summary of the contracting process

This public procurement process, initiated and completed by Bristol City Council, focuses on a "Social Care or Education Placement" with the procurement stage marked as "Award." The process pertains to the health and social work services industry, falling under the "services" procurement category. Located in Bristol, UK, the procurement occurred without competition as it was below the threshold, and utilised a "direct" procurement method. The contract, valued at £256,834.29 GBP, began on 11th April 2025 and is set to conclude on 31st March 2030. Overseeing the procurement process, Bristol City Council is headquartered at City Hall, College Green, Bristol.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social work services, particularly those capable of providing social care or educational placements. Given that the contract was awarded to Geniecare Homes Ltd, a large-scale supplier in the field, businesses looking to compete in similar future contracts would benefit from understanding the service and performance benchmarks expected by local government bodies like Bristol City Council. While this specific contract proceeded under a direct, below-threshold method, future opportunities might involve competitive tendering, enabling a variety of companies to participate and expand their market presence within the public sector. Businesses specialising in delivering comprehensive health and social care services would be well-positioned for growth in collaborating with public authorities seeking similar services to improve community well-being.
