Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Waltham Forest has engaged in a procurement process titled the "Wingfield Park Improvement Project", focusing on repairs and enhancements within Wingfield Park. This initiative falls under the industry category of repair and maintenance services, specifically targeting playground equipment and landscaping. The procurement process, now at the award stage, recognised GroundWork London, a large-scale supplier with a social enterprise component, as the contract winner. The contract, valued at £90,000, commenced on 6th November 2025 and is scheduled to conclude by 28th September 2026, with a potential extension into late 2026 if necessary. The limited competition procurement method adopted was aimed at sub-central government public authority standards and included detailed planning around playground and family area development.

This tender presents numerous opportunities for business growth for organisations specialising in public park upgrades, landscaping, and recreational installations. It is ideally suited for established contractors with expertise in park and playground enhancements along with design and build capabilities. The contract requires a comprehensive understanding of both soft and hard landscaping, and businesses able to deliver detailed design development plans could substantially benefit. It further enables companies engaged in the well-being and community services sectors to extend their portfolio, particularly those capable of providing innovative design solutions and sustainable garden planning. The project may appeal to those keen on contributing to local community development and enhancement.
