Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council, involves the contract for the "Goldthorpe Recreation Ground Climbing Unit" project. This contract encompasses the removal of the old climbing unit and the installation of a new one with surfacing. The procurement, categorised under services, is specific to the repair and maintenance of playground equipment. As of 16th May 2025, the status of the tender is complete, with NWS Play awarded the contract under a limited competition method due to it being below the threshold. The project location is in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, and is expected to run from 1st June 2025 through to 1st December 2025. The contract, valued at £62,250, was signed on 6th May 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for companies in the playground equipment industry, particularly those offering installation and maintenance services. Businesses that specialise in playground climbing apparatus or have experience in large-scale playground refurbishments are well-suited to benefit from contracts of this nature. Additionally, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) like NWS Play, which can offer bespoke and efficient solutions, may find similar opportunities appealing for business growth and expansion within the public sector. The project's focus on equipment replacement and maintenance might also attract businesses with expertise in sustainable and durable recreational facilities.
