Summary of the contracting process

Durham County Council has completed the procurement process for the design, supply, and installation of the Grove Skate Park located in Durham, United Kingdom. The contract, awarded as of 6th February 2026, falls under the 'works' category within the construction industry. The procurement method employed was limited competition due to being below the threshold, with the contract valued at £120,743.2 gross and set to commence on 1st March 2026, concluding on 1st November 2026. The process adhered to the legal framework of the UK Public General Act 2023/54, with Bendcrete Leisure Ltd being the awarded supplier.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in construction work, particularly in the design and installation of leisure facilities such as skate parks. Small and medium enterprises with expertise in this niche can benefit from the increased exposure and business growth by targeting similar future tenders. Bendcrete Leisure Ltd, being a supplier from Cheshire, illustrates the geographical opportunities available for businesses outside the immediate locality of the buyer, highlighting the chance for expansion beyond existing business locations. Companies with strengths in bespoke construction projects within the leisure sector are well-suited to compete in such tenders.
