The contract associated with this procurement is valued at £256,220.86 and spans from 28th July 2025 to 31st March 2026. The project operates under the legal framework provided by the legislation UKPGA 2023/54 with a focus on light touch special regimes. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in providing health and social work services, especially those classed as small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

Tulip Care One Limited, an SME based in Essex, secured the contract, highlighting the potential for similar enterprises to tap into public sector opportunities. Businesses adept in delivering specialised care or educational placement services could find this to be a lucrative sector for growth, especially those capable of offering bespoke solutions tailored to meet the needs of sub-central government authorities like Bristol City Council. With contracts in this sector often being awarded directly, readiness to meet targeted requirements is crucial for successful engagement.
