Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council, acting as the buying organisation, has completed a procurement process titled "Social Care or Education Placement" under the industry category of Health and Social Work Services. The process followed a direct procurement method, which was conducted below the threshold without competition, and is now at the Award stage. The awarded contract is valued at £407,694.57, commenced on 20th May 2025 and will continue until 31st March 2030. The procurement activity, designated with the ID "DNYY1185", is located in the United Kingdom, specifically in the UKK1 region. The contract operates under the light touch regime and adheres to the UKPGA 2023/54 legal framework.

This procurement presents opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in health and social work services, who can deliver quality social care or education placements. The procurement is particularly suitable for service providers like "Godwill Care", which has been successfully contracted for the project. Businesses with competencies in delivering customised social care solutions or educational services will find this contract rewarding, allowing for both growth in the sector and bolstered regional community support. The lack of competition in the procurement method signifies strong potential for well-qualified suppliers to engage in future collaborations with the Council under similar service-based contracts.
