Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Southampton City Council commissioned works to regenerate the play area outside Sturminster House as part of its Open Spaces project. The requirement is landscaping and play-area improvement work in Southampton. The procurement is categorised as works, with landscaping for parks as the specific activity. This provides a clear fit for contractors delivering public-realm landscaping and play-space regeneration, including suppliers able to undertake the works at the named site. The available scope identifies the play area and regeneration purpose but does not describe individual equipment, construction tasks or design requirements.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to KOMPAN LIMITED. The award date was 23 September 2026, and the contract period runs from 24 September 2026 to 23 September 2027. The awarded value is £98,562.99. Southampton City Council used a selective process through a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 23 September 2026. The requirement was presented as a single procurement rather than divided into stated lots. Small and medium-sized enterprises were considered suitable. The award record identifies the successful supplier and confirms an active award; no separate evaluation criteria or scoring basis are stated in the supplied procurement details.

This award demonstrates Southampton City Council’s demand for focused regeneration of a play area through public-space landscaping, at a modest project scale. KOMPAN LIMITED, identified as an SME, secured the work through a framework call-off, showing the practical relevance of framework access and experience delivering comparable play-space improvement projects for a local authority. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would be able to plan and deliver site-based landscaping and play-area regeneration, coordinate the necessary works, and demonstrate relevant public-realm or play-space experience. The requirement is specifically about the area outside Sturminster House, so suppliers whose strengths lie in unrelated grounds maintenance or general construction without relevant play-area delivery experience may be less closely aligned.
