## Summary

South Gloucestershire Council has completed a procurement process for providing Individual Personal Support (IPS) services in the South Gloucestershire region. The procurement, categorised under community health services, is in the 'services' sector and adheres to a light-touch regime. The contract was awarded on 30th April 2026, with the service period running from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027. The procurement method employed was direct, without competition, due to being below the threshold, as per UK legislation. Located in Bristol, the council will manage the contract through their offices on Badminton Road, with Hannah Brown as the primary contact person.

This procurement offers substantial opportunities for service providers in community health, specifically those specialising in personal support services. SMEs and VCSEs, such as the awarded supplier, Developing Health and Independence, who are involved in community health enhancement, would particularly benefit from engaging in such contracts. The focus on IPS indicates a demand for providers that can deliver tailored health services to individuals, thus promoting business growth within this niche. The procurement method and specifics suggest a preference for local, smaller-scale providers with a track record in health services, making it an attractive opportunity for relevant SMEs looking to expand their reach within the public sector.
