## Summary

Bristol City Council procured a social care and education placement service. The requirement falls within health and social work services and covers the placement of individuals requiring social care and education support. It is a service contract rather than a purchase of goods or construction works. The council is the public-sector buyer. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The procurement was arranged under the light-touch regime, indicating a public service requirement with a social care focus. The opportunity was structured as a single lot and awarded as one service requirement. It is relevant to organisations providing care-related placement services, particularly providers able to combine social care and education provision for council-funded placements.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Bristol City Council used a direct procedure below the relevant threshold and without competition. The award is active and the contract is active. SPAGHETTI BRIDGE LTD was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 31 August 2026, runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029, and has a gross value of £201,282. The award relates to health and social work services and the social care and education placement requirement. The procurement used one lot. The recorded process shows a completed award rather than an opportunity seeking further tenders, and the supplier is contracted for the stated three-year period.

This procurement demonstrates Bristol City Council’s demand for combined social care and education placement services and the scale of provision it has commissioned from one supplier. A credible competitor for comparable council work would need to deliver placements that address both care and education needs, manage service delivery for publicly funded individuals, and operate reliably across the United Kingdom. Relevant experience in health and social work services would be central, alongside the organisational capacity to take responsibility for a council placement requirement over a substantial contract term. The selected provider is recorded as a large organisation, so established providers with comparable operational scale may be best placed to compete when similar requirements are considered.
