Social Care or Education Placement

The procurement process managed by Bristol City Council involved the purchase of services for a contract titled "Social Care or Education Placement". Categorised under health and social work services, the project is located in the UK, specifically in the region of UKK1. Having reached the award and contract phases, with the contract status being active, the procurement method employed was direct and below threshold, meaning it was executed without competition.

This contract spans from 6 August 2025 to 31 March 2030, and it holds a gross value of £855,719. The process complies with the legal reference 2023/54 and operates under special light touch regime regulations. This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses within the services sector, particularly those specialising in health and social work.

While the contract has already been awarded to Cornerstone HealthCare, other businesses of a large scale could benefit from understanding this procurement trend and positioning themselves for future opportunities in similar sub-central government contracts. Companies providing innovative or specialised health and social work solutions could find substantial potential for commercial growth by engaging in such public procurement processes. Bristol City Council’s utilization of direct procurement underscores the importance of establishing direct connections and building a strong reputation with local authorities to secure future contracts.
