This process falls under the services industry category, specifically focusing on health and social work services and is located in the United Kingdom (region UKK1). The procurement method used was direct, below threshold without competition, and was categorized under a "light touch" regime. The procurement stage has reached its completion, with the contract active since 24th April 2025 and set to conclude on 31st March 2030. The total contract value amounts to GBP 254,995.71, and it was officially signed on 23rd April 2025.

This tender provides opportunities for businesses in the health and social services sector, particularly those capable of delivering education and placement solutions. With the contract awarded to Osborne Court, a large-scale supplier, the process underscores the prospects available for substantial companies looking to expand their services in the public sector. Businesses that are well-equipped to handle similar requirements and have a strong local presence in regions like Bristol could leverage such opportunities to enhance their growth within public sector contracts. Given the direct procurement method, agile firms with specialized offerings in social care and education would be particularly competitive in such environments.
