## Summary

Bristol City Council has completed a procurement process for the "Social Care & Education Placement" contract, which falls under the industry category of health and social work services. The procurement process was initiated without competition due to its "below threshold - direct" nature, under a special "lightTouch" regime. This contract was awarded to New Chapters Support and Wellbeing Ltd, and covers services in the UKK1 region of the United Kingdom. The contract began on 22nd December 2025 and is set to conclude on 31st March 2030. Bristol City Council serves as the buying organisation, with the procurement status marked as complete as of 5th February 2026.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the health and social work sectors, particularly those offering services related to social care and education placements. With a contract valued at £225,842.80, it presents a lucrative engagement for organisations operating under similar categories. While the current contract has been awarded, similar future opportunities might appeal to companies that specialise in those services. Businesses of significant scale, like New Chapters Support and Wellbeing Ltd, may find the competitive edge in such procurement avenues due to their capacity to deliver comprehensive and efficient service offerings. Other large service providers in the sector can also look forward to similar procurement opportunities issued by sub-central government bodies like Bristol City Council.
