## Summary

Bristol City Council recently completed a public procurement process for the "Social Care or Education Placement" project, aimed at providing health and social work services. This procurement falls under the services industry category and was conducted using a direct procurement method below the threshold without competition, as part of a light-touch regime. The contract was awarded to NEW BEGINNINGS (BRISTOL) LIMITED, a company classified as an SME, with the contract active from 16th September 2025 to 31st March 2030. The total contract value is approximately £375,596. The process reached the awarding and contracting stages by mid-October 2025. Services will be delivered in the South West area of the UK, specifically around Bristol.

This tender represents a lucrative opportunity for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) seeking to expand within the health and social work services sector. Businesses such as social care providers or educational institutions with the flexibility to operate under direct procurement conditions, including below-threshold projects, can find substantial growth opportunities. Given Bristol City Council's commitment to engaging local suppliers, companies based in the South West region, particularly those with experience in managing care placements, would be well-suited to pursue similar contracts and partnerships in future procurement processes.
