Notice Description

To design a small playground and supply and install playground equipment and safety surfaces at a Community Centre playing fields. The Council is inviting Tenders proposing up to 2 design options: one that includes and utilises existing equipment (Swings and slide, if still regulation compliant), and one for a completely new play scheme. An itemised tender is required for identifying all costs together with illustrative layouts that will be presented to the Council who will decide on a final preferred option, to then be finally ratified by Alvechurch Parish Councillors. Tenders have a funding ceiling of PS30,000 (Excluding VAT). Findings from a short survey: * The need for refurbishment of the existing play area and supply and installation of new playground equipment and safety surfaces at Hopwood Community Recreation Field. * Greatest users of equipment are early years (3-5 yrs. old) and key stages 1&2 (5 -11 yrs. olds) children. Key Stage 3 to 4 (12-15yrs. old) children are occasional users also. * Adults have high usage both in the supervision of children and for socialising. * The wish for the provision and installation of a new toddler/junior play unit and some challenging play equipment for slightly older children, together with safety ground surfacing. Most popular ideas were monkey-bars, rotators, climbing frames, e.g. New Multi-Climbing Units (1 x Toddler Age/Junior Age and a 3rd more challenging item such as Basket Swing or rotating items on new turf and grass matting to reduce costs. * The scheme to result in a playground to suit the area for different age groups & abilities. * Considerations having to be given for football pitch areas and runoffs which are used weekly. (The area we have identified at Hopwood for new children's' play equipment should be enough to provide a safe distance between it and the football pitches as currently configured. An itemised quotation is required to identify all costs together with an illustrated layout for design purposes which will be assessed on a quality and warranty and play value basis, as well as on price. Materials Due to previous issues with wood, the council is looking for longevity and minimal maintenance, so predominantly steel equipment. Colours should complement the surrounding natural environment. Removals Any items that may require removal should be agreed at the survey stage. Surfacing (to be agreed) The council has a preference for grass matting to reduce costs and focus on the actual play equipment. As a result, provision needs to be included to supply and install new turf and grass matting under any equipment or where necessary other materials that provide a safe play surface. There is a pedestrian access to the field which may be widened to facilitate access to the field during the works but the bund must be reinstated and grass-seeded at the end of works. Permanent pedestrian access to also be created as part of this contract. Additional information: Contractors are welcome to visit the site at any time. Please provide 1 x A1 hard Copy of any visuals / designs and 1 x A4 hard copy of any supporting material such as the quotation to the Clerk, Alvechurch Parish Council, at Ground Floor, 1A George Road Alvechurch Birmingham B48 7PB The items should be provided in a sealed envelope clearly marked "Tender response - for the attention of the Clerk".
