Summary of the contracting process

Withyham Parish Council is currently undertaking a tender process for the refurbishment of the Groombridge Recreation Ground Playarea, classified under recreational, cultural, and sporting services. The project aims to modernise existing play facilities for children aged up to 12, with an estimated contract value of £75,000. The tender, identified as WPCGRG/RFQ/2020, is in the planning stage, and submissions are due by 15 February 2021. The works will commence on 5 April 2021 and are expected to complete by 7 June 2021. Interested parties are encouraged to contact the Clerk for detailed bidding documents.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in playground equipment installation, landscaping, and general construction services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to compete due to the selective procurement method employed, which allows for proposals covering all or individual elements of the project, including play area equipment, fencing, and surfacing. Businesses that can offer innovative design modifications or sustainable materials are likely to stand out in this competitive process.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Refurbishment Groombridge Recreation Ground Playarea

Notice Description

Withyham Parish Council has existing fenced play facilities for children up to 12 years old at Groombridge Recreation Ground. The facilities have been in situ for many years and, although well maintained, are dated by today's standards. An architect has designed a concept which utilises high fencing like ramparts, with equipment contained within the fenced areas. The initial design illustrated the concept of the design as being like a fort and showed play equipment within. The upper level could allow us to incorporate, for example, a slide, swing and climbing net attached to the structure. Activities for smaller children would be towards the middle of the palisade. We would welcome suggestions for any improvements and modifications to the design in order to achieve the best possible project. The fencing has received planning permission from Wealden District Council WD/2019/2359/F. During consultation on this application, some members of the public raised concerns about being able to see in or out of the play area so we would be happy to receive tenders containing modifications that had lower elements facing towards the recreation ground, and/or more open boarding to the fencing all the way round. We believe that the most appropriate form of surfacing would be wet pour or bonded mulch in a single, natural colour in order to fit with the natural environment. The Request for Quotation (RFQ) seeks submissions for the replacement as described above of: 1. Play area equipment 2. Fencing 3. Surfacing Contractors may quote for all or one or two elements. To apply please contact the Clerk at Withyham Parish Council for the full Request for Quotation paperwork, which describes how to apply, clerk@withyhamparishcouncil.org.uk.
