## Summary

Bristol City Council has completed a procurement process for a contract titled "Social Care or Education Placement", falling under the industry category of Health and Social Work Services. This process was conducted as a direct procurement method, below the threshold and without competition, under the light-touch regime. The contract, awarded on 12th September 2025, is set in the UKK1 region, specifically serving the Bristol area. The procurement began with a notice dated 3rd April 2025 and involves an active contract period from 4th April 2025 to 31st March 2026, valued at £368,989.19.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in health and social care services, particularly those that can efficiently provide specialised placements in an educational or social care setting. Given that the procurement process did not involve open competition, larger establishments or those with specialised services, like Skylark Care Solutions Ltd, which was awarded the contract, are well-positioned to engage with similar tenders. Companies aiming to establish a foothold in public sector contracts with sub-central government bodies such as Bristol City Council would benefit from exploring these opportunities.
