UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, classified as a public authority within central government, concerns the creation of an Outdoor Sensory Garden located in Chester, United Kingdom. The procurement method utilised was direct, below the threshold without competition, and the contract has progressed to the award stage with completion status. The contract period spans from 7 March 2026 to 30 June 2026, while the contract was signed on 6 March 2026. It involves the procurement of goods primarily within the industry category of playground equipment.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in the supply of playground equipment and associated garden goods. Given that the procurement method was direct and below the threshold, Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) like Creative Play UK Ltd, which has been awarded this contract, are particularly well-placed to compete in such processes, providing a pathway for business expansion within the public sector. The absence of competition offers an advantageous scenario for businesses that can establish direct procurement relationships with public authorities.
