Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process involves the refurbishment of the West Swindon Play Area, facilitated by West Swindon Parish Council. The contract focuses on providing a design and costs for the supply and installation of new play equipment, valued at £130,000. The procurement stage is currently active, with the end of the tender period scheduled for 31 May 2025. The project is classified under CPV code 37000000, covering musical instruments, sport goods, games, toys, handicraft, art materials, and accessories, and aims to deliver a unique play experience harmonised with the natural green environment. The procurement method is open, allowing submissions both electronically and in written form, with selections based on completion of RFQ documents and required insurances. Located at Shaw Ridge Linear Park, West Swindon Parish seeks innovative designs suitable for children of all ages, particularly focusing on those with special needs.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in creative play equipment and recreational services that can offer novel designs integrating seamlessly into natural settings. Companies capable of furnishing diverse and inclusive play solutions for special needs children stand to benefit greatly. Suppliers like Hag Ltd, previously awarded for a related project, illustrate potential growth by successfully navigating tender requirements emphasizing both play value and fiscal efficiency. Large corporations with a strong portfolio in children's recreational equipment, and SMEs that innovate in outdoor play designs, are well-suited to compete and potentially expand their operations through this key local authority initiative.
