Summary of the contracting process

Nottinghamshire County Council, acting for Rushcliffe Borough Council, procured the replacement and refurbishment of equipment in the toddler and junior play areas at Hook Playground in Lady Bay, West Bridgford. The works also include associated groundworks. This is a playground refurbishment and landscaping project, covering existing play equipment and the surrounding play areas.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Proludic on 25 September 2026. The contract period runs from 12 October 2026 to 11 April 2027. The awarded value is £105,000 excluding VAT. The original tender deadline was 17 September 2026 at noon, and accompanied site visits could be requested for 4–8 September 2026. The contract was intended for a single supplier, and the opportunity was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The award demonstrates demand from Rushcliffe Borough Council for playground equipment replacement and refurbishment combined with associated groundworks, delivered at a single playground site. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to supply and install suitable equipment for both toddler and junior play areas and undertake the related groundworks as one coordinated package. The procurement was considered suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and Proludic, itself identified as an SME, was selected. Experience delivering playground refurbishment projects that bring together equipment and site works would therefore be relevant.
