Notice Title

GB-Rickmansworth: Eastbury & Ebury Play Area

Notice Description

Three Rivers District Council are seeking to replace play area equipment in Ebury Play Area and Eastbury Play Area as the equipment has become end of life and no longer meets the needs of the local community. It should be noted that the play equipment for Ebury Play Area, must be in keeping with that of a local nature reserve and should be similar to the existing equipment in the Rickmansworth Aquadrome Play Space and in line with the requirements of a destination play area. Eastbury Play area is a local play area visited by KS1 and KS2 children. It is anticipated that both play areas will be a blend between play and nature with a heavy influence on creating a biodiverse habitat space that can be enjoyed whilst children play, will encourage interaction with nature and contribute to green corridors passing through the District. This EOI is to ascertain interest in a mini competition for quotes to be held between suppliers to obtain the best price and quality of works for each play area against the summary of works and is also being used to continue to test the market. The Council is seeking to attract both Designers and Installers under a Design and Build project through this EOI. The Council is particularly keen on viewing expressions of interest for designers of play equipment from natural materials as shown in the example and to review case studies. The Council's final procurement strategy will depend on the responses to this Expression of Interest to decide if the elements are commissioned separately or wrapped into a single package. The Council would consider the novation of the design to the build element to successfully manage the risk in the process. Further information is to be found in our EOI attached. Please complete and return in accordance with the closing date stated with relevant case studies or examples. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
