## Summary

The procurement process titled "In-House Services Review" was conducted by Bristol City Council in the South West of the United Kingdom, focusing on the business and management consultancy services industry. The process, initiated as a tender, has reached the award stage with the process concluding on 15th December 2025. Bristol City Council sought external analysis and recommendations linked to time-sensitive MTFP related activity for their in-house services which include Residential, Reablement, Meals on Wheels, Shared Lives, and Community Links centres. The procurement followed a direct award method, with a contract period starting on 22nd December 2025 and ending on 15th June 2026. The award was made active on 16th December 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), which are well-suited to compete in this space. The successful bidder was Constellia Public Ltd, a company that aligns with an SME or VCSE profile, demonstrating the potential for similar businesses to engage in public sector opportunities like this and expand their service offerings. Providing consultancy and business management services to local governmental bodies such as Bristol City Council can establish a foothold in public sector procurement and lead to long-term partnerships.
