UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for a "Social Care or Education Placement" was conducted by Bristol City Council, a public authority within the sub-central government, serving from its headquarters at City Hall, College Green, Bristol. This tender falls under the industry category of services, specifically targeting health and social work services. Positioned in the United Kingdom's South West region, classified as UKK11, this procurement was completed through a direct method below the threshold without competition, known as a "light touch" regime. The buying organisation awarded the contract to Cleeve House Limited, a large supplier based in Melksham, UKK15 region. The contract, valued at £89,080, is active with a term from 1 September 2025 to 31 August 2026, and it was officially signed on 31 August 2025.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities, particularly for large service providers specialising in health and social work services. Given that the procurement was conducted without a competitive stage, it suggests a targeted selection method, which may suit businesses capable of meeting bespoke requirements or maintaining a strong reputation in the sector. Companies experienced in delivering tailored social care or educational placement services within the public sector or seeking to expand their portfolio in the South West of England would find this contract advantageous. It underscores the value of cultivating relationships with local government bodies like Bristol City Council, which could lead to further contracting opportunities through direct procurement approaches.
