## Summary

Bristol City Council has successfully concluded a procurement process for the "Agent for Acquisitions Programme", which is related to the construction industry, specifically focusing on refurbishment work. This was a direct award made as part of the council's initiative to outsource refurbishment tasks handled by the BCC Repairs and Maintenance Team. The contract, worth £7.5 million, was awarded through Constellia Public Ltd, with a tender period ending on 25th June 2025. The contract runs from 3rd July 2025 until 2nd July 2028, covering the South West region of the United Kingdom. With the procurement phase in the award stage, Bristol City Council has engaged Constellia as the primary supplier to manage home acquisitions and related refurbishments.

This contract offers significant opportunities for growth, particularly for SMEs and VCSEs in the construction and refurbishment sectors. By leveraging the multi-specialism services framework, businesses with expertise in acquisitions and refurbishment can align themselves for future such opportunities in the public sector. Being well-suited for small to medium enterprises, the contract, executed by Constellia with their partners Phi Property Acquisitions Limited and Phi Works Limited, sets a precedent for collaborative and dynamic service deliveries within this sector in the UK. Potential suppliers can gain a foothold in public procurement by understanding the strategic partnership model employed by Bristol City Council in this project.
