It was secured through a direct procurement method, classified as "below threshold - without competition." The process reached its award stage on 15th September 2025. Despite the tender process being labelled as "complete," the contract itself is active, covering service provisions from 24th April 2025 to 31st March 2030. The service location is broadly defined within the UK, pinpointing a region suitable for businesses operating in sectors related to social care or education placement services.

This tender, awarded to The Granville Care Home Ltd, a small to medium-sized enterprise (SME) based in Cheltenham, presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specializing in health and social work services. With the contract running until 2030, it offers a long-term partnership with a reputable public authority. Businesses with expertise in providing care services or educational placements are particularly well-suited to meet the demands of such contracts. Establishing a presence in the South West of England, particularly in the Bristol region, could be beneficial for organisations seeking to expand their footprint in the public sector. This opportunity highlights the importance of SMEs in public procurement, especially those capable of delivering high-quality tailored services under a direct procurement framework.
