Summary of the contracting process

The City of York Council is currently in the tender stage for the Glen Gardens Play Area construction project, falling under the construction industry category. This procurement process is taking place in York (region UKE21), United Kingdom. The procurement method for this project is an open competition that is below the threshold, allowing for a wider range of suppliers to participate. Key dates to note include the extended enquiry deadline of 15th October 2026 and the submission deadline of 28th October 2026. The contract period is scheduled from 1st December 2025 to 2nd January 2026, with a project value of £84,000 (gross), equivalent to £70,000. This tender focuses on high-quality submissions, particularly in the construction work category, as it will be evaluated based on a three-stage quality assessment process.

This tender offers an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in playground design and construction, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises that can demonstrate three or more years of experience. The procurement process’s focus on quality allows businesses excelling in innovative and community-focused design to gain an advantage. Companies with robust health and safety plans and adequate insurance coverage, including public liability, employers liability, and professional indemnity, are well-suited to compete. The project’s emphasis on community engagement in the final design selection presents a unique chance for businesses to align their proposals with local needs, potentially increasing their visibility and appeal within the community.
