UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council has completed a public procurement process for a "Social Care and Education Placement" project, identified by tender ID DNYY2289. The procurement falls under the services category with a focus on health and social work services, according to CPV classification 85000000. This contract was procured through a direct procurement method below the competitive threshold, under a light-touch regime, and was awarded to VERRI MEDIA LIMITED. The contract started on 2 March 2026 and is set to conclude on 31 May 2027. The total contract value is £12,407.96. The services are to be delivered in the UKK1 region of the United Kingdom, and the tender process is now complete with the contract actively in place.

This procurement opportunity, although awarded directly without competition, highlights how small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like VERRI MEDIA LIMITED can secure government contracts, particularly in specialised fields such as social care and education services. The procurement method chosen suggests that contracts below certain financial thresholds may not require competitive tendering, making them accessible for SMEs looking to engage with public sector clients. Such opportunities are particularly beneficial for businesses operating within the specified industry category and region, seeking to leverage local government projects to drive growth and establish credibility in the public sector market.
