Summary of the contracting process

Crowthorne Parish Council has recently completed a public procurement process to design, supply, and install a new accessible play area specifically for young children at the Morgan Recreation Ground in Crowthorne, United Kingdom. The Council, acting as the buying organisation, aimed to create an inspirational play space that supports its commitments under both the Crowthorne Neighbourhood Plan and the Three Year Strategy Plan. The procurement was conducted through an open, below-threshold competition, resulting in PROLUDIC LIMITED being awarded the contract valued at £150,000, including VAT. The contract, spanning from 7th September 2026 to 16th October 2026, falls under the industry category of recreational, cultural, and sporting services.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in the supply and installation of recreational and landscaping equipment, particularly those experienced in accessible and inclusive play areas for children. SMEs like PROLUDIC LIMITED, which was successful in securing the contract, are well-positioned to meet such demand given the project's focus on generating community engagement and promoting outdoor activities. Companies involved in recreational infrastructure can benefit from participating in similar projects by contributing to community development and establishing a presence in the public procurement landscape.
