Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council, a public authority at the sub-central government level, recently completed a procurement process titled "Social Care or Education Placement" (ID: DNYY0135). The procurement, governed by the legal basis UKPGA 2023/54, involved a direct method below threshold without competition, under the light-touch regime in the services category for health and social work services. The contracting activity, located in the region UKK1 of the United Kingdom, moved to the award and contract stage, with the contract starting on 11th April 2024 and ending on 11th April 2028. The contract, worth £273,394, was awarded to Manorville Care Homes Ltd, a large-scale supplier based in Bromley, Kent, and the contract details were published on 23rd September 2025.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for large-scale service providers specializing in health and social work services. The direct procurement method suited to below-threshold contracts minimizes competitive barriers, allowing select firms to collaborate closely with local government entities like Bristol City Council. Businesses equipped with robust operational capabilities to fulfil health and social care placements and who can navigate the intricacies of direct public-sector engagements can leverage such contracts for stable revenue streams. Additionally, this type of engagement could strengthen supplier relationships within the public sector and enhance service portfolios for companies akin to Manorville Care Homes Ltd.
