Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Social Care and Education Placement" has been completed, with Bristol City Council serving as the buying organisation. The contract falls under the services category, specifically health and social work services, and is located in the UK region of UKK1. The procurement was initiated by direct award, classified as a light touch process below the threshold, and did not involve competition. The contract award was to BRISTOL WASTE COMPANY LIMITED, beginning on 16th June 2026 and concluding on 19th June 2026, with a contract value of £5,800. The signing took place on 15th June 2026, with the award marked as active since the last update on 6th August 2026.

This opportunity is relevant for businesses in the health and social care services sector looking to expand their portfolios through public sector clients. While the procurement method was direct, indicating specific qualifications or prior relationships may have been crucial, businesses that engage in similar services should consider preparing for future opportunities by enhancing their engagement with sub-central public authorities like Bristol City Council. Building a demonstrated track record in delivering such services can position similar companies to respond effectively to similar requirements in the future, especially in sectors requiring a light touch procurement approach.
