## Summary

Bristol City Council has recently completed a procurement process for a contract titled "Social Care or Education Placement," which falls under the services industry category, specifically health and social work services. The procurement utilised a direct procurement method under a light touch regime, indicating it was below threshold and conducted without competition. The awarded contract, valued at £25,575, commenced on 6th October 2025 and will conclude on 31st March 2030, covering delivery locations within the United Kingdom, primarily the UKK1 region. The key entity involved as the supplier is LIVEWEST HOMES LIMITED, a large-scale enterprise based in Exeter.

Given the nature of the procurement process, organisations with the capacity to deliver social care or educational placements and offices within the UK, particularly in the South West, would find this contract fitting. It is especially relevant to those capable of managing contracts under direct procurement methods which often favour established entities with proven service delivery capabilities. Businesses looking to expand into governmental contracts within the public authority and sub-central government sectors will benefit from understanding the requirements and constraints posed by light touch regimes.
