Summary of the contracting process

The Goring on Thames Parish Council undertook an open procurement process for the refurbishment and extension of the Gardiner Playground in Goring-on-Thames, United Kingdom. This public authority, classified as a sub-central government entity, completed the procurement under an open competition method below the financial threshold as defined by UK legislation. The tender, which entailed the installation of new children's playground equipment and surfacing, reached the award stage on 18 December 2025, when the contract was signed. The awarded project, with a contract period from 2 January 2026 to 30 April 2026, was classified primarily under construction and recreational services categories, and the contract value was set to £132,000 excluding VAT.

This scheme presents significant business growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in construction, landscaping, or the supply of playground and recreational equipment. Given the open competition nature of the procurement method, the tender was accessible to various suppliers, and the completion of this project would enhance the profile and experience portfolio of the awarded supplier, Proludic Limited. Ideal bidders for similar future opportunities would be those with capabilities in design, materials supply, and efficient project management, thereby supporting community projects that contribute to local infrastructure improvements and community engagement in the UK.
