Summary of the contracting process

Southampton City Council procured works to install the Mayflower Play Area in Southampton, around postcode SO14 2AN. The requirement is classified as landscaping work for playgrounds (CPV 45112723), covering the physical delivery of a play area rather than routine maintenance or general landscaping. The council is both the buyer and the organisation responsible for the requirement. The work is categorised as construction and installation works. The named delivery postcode is SO14 7LY, also in Southampton, indicating a local site requirement within the city. Businesses relevant to this opportunity would include playground manufacturers, specialist play-area installers, and contractors experienced in landscaping and installing external recreational facilities.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 21 July 2026 to KOMPAN LIMITED, with an awarded value of £99,974.64 including the stated currency of GBP. The awarded contract period runs from 21 July 2026 to 21 July 2026, so the published period covers a single day. The tender submission deadline was 20 July 2026 at 12:00. The procurement’s estimated value was also £99,974.64. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the procurement category was works. The award is recorded as active.

For a supplier that did not win this requirement, the award demonstrates Southampton City Council’s demand for a substantial, site-specific play-area installation delivered through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for similar work would need capability in playground landscaping, equipment installation and managing the construction of an external recreational site. Relevant businesses are likely to be specialist playground contractors, manufacturers with installation teams, and small or medium-sized firms able to operate within a framework purchasing route. Experience coordinating the complete installation rather than supplying standalone equipment would strengthen a supplier’s position. Firms should also be able to deliver safely and reliably at a defined Southampton site, with the practical capacity to complete a sizeable play-area works package.
