Summary of the contracting process

The Wivelsfield Parish Council is overseeing an active tender process titled "Wivelsfield Recreational Sports and Play Project." This procurement focuses on enhancing the recreational area at Wivelsfield Green and is categorised under construction and recreational facilities within the construction works industry sector. Key deliverables are divided into three lots: a play area refurbishment, a multi-use games area and fitness facility, and the construction of pathways. The procurement method is an open, below-threshold competition. Potential suppliers can bid by 10th July 2026, with inquiries accepted until 26th June 2026. The project involves a gross contract value up to GBP 600,000, distributed across various lots, and execution is expected between August 2026 and August 2027.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for growth-oriented businesses in the construction and sports facility sectors, especially those specialising in playground equipment, outdoor sports facilities, and pathway construction. With Wivelsfield Parish Council not mandating a single contractor, companies can bid on individual lots or multiple, allowing flexibility and potentially more focused expertise application. Successful bidders can contribute to community development while sustaining business expansion. Businesses with strong project design and technical prowess, as well as competitive cost offerings, will be well-positioned to benefit from this opportunity, especially given the structured award criteria focusing on design, technical capacity, and presentation quality.

Notice Title

Wivelsfield Recreational Sports and Play Project

Notice Description

Wivelsfield Parish Council has received building contributions which have been allocated to improve and enhance the recreational area at Wivelsfield Green. The procurement process and attached tender documents have proposed 3 Lots as follows: Lot 1: Existing Play Area Refurbishment Lot 2: New Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA) & Fitness Facility Lot 3: New Recreational Tarmacadam Pathway Suppliers may choose to bid for one or multiple Lots as the Council is not specifically seeking a single contractor to undertake the work unless the scoring criteria's results determine such an outcome. The Council has a proposed a set budget for Lot 1 with estimated costs for Lots 2 and 3, however following the receipt of tenders and quotations, there may be a requirement to adjust the budget and overall allocation of funding, particularly if the total exceeds the current funding available. Should this be the case, the Council will seek any shortfall to cover the total requirements (potentially delaying one of the Lots until achieved) or adjust the budget for each project in line with the available funding.
