Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Bexley has successfully awarded a contract for the provision of Special Educational Needs (SEN) services. This contract falls within the health and social work services industry category, with operations centred in the United Kingdom. This procurement process was initiated through a direct method below the threshold, without competition, highlighting its focus on acquiring specific services efficiently. The contract commenced on 4th August 2025 and concluded on 25th November 2025, with its status now marked as complete; it was officially awarded on 3rd December 2025.

This tender represents a significant business growth opportunity, particularly for organisations specialising in SEN services and health and social work. Although the procurement method was direct and without competition, businesses similar to Ambitious about Autism, the successful supplier, may find future opportunities with sub-central government entities like the London Borough of Bexley rewarding. Small and medium-sized enterprises in the social services sector, particularly those in the UKI region, could be well-positioned to leverage such contracts to expand their service portfolios and strengthen their market positions.
