## Summary

Bristol City Council, a public authority within the sub-central government, has recently completed a procurement process for the provision of social care or education placements, under the title "Social Care or Education Placement" (DNYY1556). This procurement falls under the services category, specifically health and social work services, and is geographically situated in the UKK1 region, encompassing part of the United Kingdom. The process was finalised on 8th September 2025, following a direct procurement method classified as "below threshold - without competition". The awarded contract was signed with Keys Group PCE Ltd on 5th August 2025, set to commence on 8th August 2025 and conclude by 31st March 2026, with a total value of £547,014.29.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in the provision of health and social services, particularly those experienced in handling large-scale service contracts. Given the nature of the procurement as a direct award procedure, it is ideally suited for well-established companies capable of delivering comprehensive care placements due to the lack of competitive bidding. The involvement of Bristol City Council as the buyer provides a reliable and reputable client base, creating a promising avenue for growth. Companies like Keys Group PCE Ltd, which are large enough to manage such contracts, are well positioned to benefit from collaboration with public institutions in future procurement activities.
