Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council has completed the procurement process for a direct award under the title "Social Care or Education Placement". This tender falls within the services industry category, specifically focusing on health and social work services (CPV code: 85000000). The contract was signed on 3rd August 2025 and will run from 4th August 2025 to 31st March 2030, with a total contract value of £87,043.57. The procurement was conducted under a direct procurement method below the threshold, without competition, as part of a light-touch regime. The procurement location is Bristol, United Kingdom, within the UKK1 region.

The contract opens up opportunities for businesses specializing in health and social work services in the Bristol region. Although the procurement was awarded without competition, similar future tenders from this sub-central government authority could be beneficial for businesses that offer large-scale social care or education services. Companies interested in public sector contracts in the health and social sectors, particularly those capable of handling direct awards, would have been well-suited for this opportunity. The awarded supplier, ST MONICA TRUST, is an example of a large enterprise operating within this segment. Businesses aiming to expand in public service contracts might consider establishing a strong portfolio in the health and social care sectors to be competitive in similar future tenders.
