Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process facilitated by Bristol City Council concerns a completed tender for Social Care or Education Placement services under the direct procurement method. Classified under health and social work services, this contract was conducted without competition due to its below-threshold value. The contract spans from 21st July 2025 to 31st March 2030 with a total contract value of £121,272.31. The main location for service delivery is in the UKK1 region, encompassing Bristol and the surrounding areas. Notably, this process falls under the 'light touch' regime with legal backing from the UKPGA 2023/54 legislation.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities for large-scale service providers within the health and social care industry. Businesses capable of providing robust, scalable solutions in education placements or social care would be well-suited for such contracts. While this particular contract was awarded to LD Awareness, similar future opportunities may allow firms in the region to build their portfolios by working with sub-central government public authorities like Bristol City Council.
