Summary of the contracting process

Madeley Parish Council procured the supply and installation of a new play area at Madeley Centre. The work covered play equipment, safety surfacing and fencing for children from toddler age to around 12 or 13. The design was required to suit the village’s rural character and provide swinging, climbing, sliding, imaginative and sensory play, with a central feature inside the play area. The equipment and installation were classified as playground equipment. The work was for Madeley Centre in Madeley; the procurement data also records delivery coverage across England.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to KOMPAN LIMITED on 5 June 2025. The award value was £90,000 including VAT. The contract was signed on 28 August 2026 and terminated after completion on 21 September 2026; the final value was £89,579.35 including VAT. The award records a contract period from 1 to 30 August 2025, while the signed contract records a later period from 1 to 21 September 2026. This was a below-threshold open competition, with one lot. The submission deadline was 20 May 2025, following an enquiry deadline of 13 May. Evaluation weighted play value at 35%, design rationale 30%, inclusivity 15%, durability 10%, programme of works 5% and references 5%.

This award shows demand from Madeley Parish Council for a complete, installed children’s play area rather than equipment supply alone. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need experience installing play areas and the ability to provide suitable equipment, safety surfacing and fencing as an integrated package. Designs would need to address the full toddler-to-early-teen age range, combine active and imaginative or sensory play, and include a distinctive central feature while fitting a rural setting. The evaluation favoured play value and design rationale, with inclusivity and durability also assessed; relevant project references and a workable installation programme formed part of the assessment. The tender required public liability insurance, a company health and safety policy and Association of Play Industries certification. Small and medium-sized enterprises were considered suitable participants, and three bids were received.
