Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Parks Limited procured inspection, maintenance and repair of play equipment at the Diana Princess of Wales Memorial Playground in London. This is specialist playground-equipment maintenance work, covering both routine inspection and repairs to the equipment, with the detailed work defined by the contract documents. The requirement is classified as a service and relates to the playground at the named memorial site. The buyer is The Royal Parks Limited, which manages the procurement. The work is site-based in London, rather than a general supply of equipment or a wider parks maintenance service. Its focus is keeping the playground’s play equipment inspected, maintained and repaired.

The procurement is complete and awarded to Timberplay Ltd. The award date was 19 August 2026, and the contract runs from 20 August 2026 to 19 August 2029. The awarded value is £38,508. The original tender estimated the same value, and submissions were due by 18 August 2026. The recorded category is services. The data does not identify the procurement route or evaluation criteria, so the outcome cannot be linked to a stated scoring basis or procedure. This was a single requirement for the named playground rather than a multi-lot procurement. Timberplay Ltd is the selected supplier; no other supplier or separate award is recorded.

For suppliers considering comparable work at this playground in future, the award demonstrates demand for maintaining play equipment at a major, public-facing London attraction. A credible competitor would need to show that it can inspect equipment systematically, identify maintenance needs and carry out repairs safely and reliably in an operational playground. Familiarity with playground equipment and the ability to support its ongoing condition across a sustained service period would be relevant to this requirement. Timberplay Ltd, a large supplier, secured the work, providing evidence that the buyer selected an established provider for the requirement. The scope is specifically play-equipment inspection, maintenance and repair; general grounds maintenance or equipment supply alone would not match the service described.
