Summary of the contracting process

This procurement process, initiated by Bristol City Council, concerns a contract awarded for "Social Care or Education Placement" with a focus on health and social work services. The procurement falls under the services category and was conducted without competition as a direct procurement, below the threshold with light-touch regulations. The contract, valued at £1,017,146.12, was signed on 27th April 2025 and is set to run until 31st March 2030. The services under this contract are to be delivered in the UKK1 region, comprising the United Kingdom. The award phase was completed with Manor Community selected as the supplier, and the contract was finalised in December 2025.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for large-scale service providers, especially those specialised in delivering health and social work services.
