Summary of the contracting process

Stevenage Borough Council procured works to repair, replace and renovate the toddler play area at Ridlins. The requirement covers outdoor playground equipment and associated design, supply, delivery, installation, maintenance and inspection, through the relevant framework lot. The delivery location is in the East of England. This is a local authority project focused on renewing an existing play area, rather than a general parks maintenance contract.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Kompan Ltd on 24 September 2026. The award value is £60,000. The contract period runs from 1 November to 31 December 2026. The council used a selective call-off from a framework agreement for outdoor playground, fitness and sports facilities and equipment. The estimated procurement value was also £60,000, and bids were due by 7 August 2026. The works were treated as a single requirement, with no separate lots recorded. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. No award evaluation criteria are recorded.

For suppliers competing for comparable work from Stevenage Borough Council, this award demonstrates demand for the refurbishment of a named toddler play area, including repair and replacement as well as renovation. A credible supplier would need to deliver outdoor play equipment as a complete package, covering design, supply, delivery and installation, and be able to provide maintenance and inspection. The council used a framework call-off, so relevant experience of supplying through that route would be useful. The requirement was presented as suitable for smaller businesses and voluntary or community enterprises as well as larger suppliers. Competitors should be able to demonstrate the practical capacity to coordinate equipment and installation for a focused, site-based playground renewal.
