Summary of the contracting process

This public procurement contract was initiated by Bristol City Council for a "Social Care and Education Placement" service, under the award and contract stage as of 2nd July 2026. Located in Bristol, UK (region UKK11), the procurements fall within the health and social work services category. Specifically, the process used a direct procurement method, executed without competition, categorised under the "lightTouch" regime. The contract was signed on 5th April 2026, with active status running from 6th April 2026 to 31st August 2026. The total contract value is £33,150 GBP, and it involves the supplier ELYSIUM HEALTHCARE LIMITED, a large entity based in Borehamwood.

This procurement provides substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in health and social work services, especially those capable of delivering high-quality placements in social care and education. The direct award process, without a competitive tender, implies opportunities for businesses prepared to swiftly engage with sub-central government entities like Bristol City Council. Larger suppliers or those already possessing relevant accreditations or significant experience in similar sectors may find particular advantage in such arrangements, potentially reinforcing their position or expanding their presence within the UK regional public services market.
