Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Avebury Trusloe Playground" project was conducted by Avebury Parish Council, located in Avebury, United Kingdom. The procurement falls under the category of goods, specifically playground equipment, and was managed through an open competition below the threshold. The contracting authority is a public authority operating at a sub-central government level. The latest stage, as of July 2025, is the contract award phase. The contract, valued at £40,000, was awarded to Sovereign Design Play Systems Limited on 2nd July 2025, with the project scheduled to start on 1st September 2025 and expected to conclude by the end of September 2025.

This tender creates opportunities for businesses involved in the design and supply of playground equipment, especially those meeting sub-central government needs. Small and medium enterprises, like the successful bidder Sovereign Design Play Systems Limited, are well-suited to compete, particularly if they can offer flexible financial arrangements such as payment plans over several years. The project has a scope for renewal or additional options, ideal for businesses that can offer a variety of playground structures and surfacing materials, potentially expanding their footprint in regional play area developments across the UK.
