Summary of the contracting process

Hannington Parish Council is seeking tenders for a significant refurbishment of the Skinners Close Play Area. The project, aptly titled "Hannington Parish Council Play Project," falls under the works category within the playground equipment sector, aiming to revitalize existing infrastructure to accommodate diverse ages and abilities. The refurbishment will primarily take place within the UKK region, specifically starting with the 'Junior Space.' This process, currently in the tender stage, demands attention to key dates such as the deadline for enquiries on 1st May 2026, and the closure of tender submissions by 8th May 2026. The contract period is slated to commence on 1st July 2026, ending on 1st January 2027. Businesses interested would need to design comprehensive solutions in line with project guidelines and compete under the open procurement method within a below threshold framework.

This tender provides a fruitful opportunity for businesses specialising in playground refurbishment and construction work. Firms with expertise in designing inclusive play areas and dealing with wooden structures on sloped terrains will find this project aligns well with their capabilities. Suitable for SMEs, this open competition encourages innovation with design, technical expertise, and presentation forming the core award criteria. By participating, businesses can potentially expand their portfolio and reach by contributing to a community-centered initiative, funded by both public and private entities. Engaging in this project could not only bolster business growth but also help in fostering community development through the enhancement of public recreational spaces.

Notice Title

Hannington Parish Council Play Project

Notice Description

Hannington Parish Council manages a well-used play area at Skinner's Close, however the entire site requires replacement of equipment, new seating, and consideration of how the space would be used optimally for different ages and abilities. Predominantly made of wood, the equipment currently requires high levels of maintenance or is nearing the end of life, while also needing some new play items to revitalize the space and experience. The site is located on a slope and divided into two level areas which can broadly be referred to as the 'Junior Space' and 'Toddler Space' due to the existing equipment within these zones. The safety surfacing is wetpour which seems to be in good condition, other than shrinkage on the edging. The two areas are separated by a wooden retaining wall which will need to be replaced in the future. Due to the potential cost and available budget to undertake a single refurbishment across the entire site, the Council is looking to stage this into two phases with the upper level 'Junior Space' being the initial priority. With some funding allocated to the project, the Council will be seeking additional funding from both the Local Authority and local businesses to secure the full allocated requirement.
