Summary of the contracting process

South Ribble Borough Council is procuring the supply and construction of Holland House Play Area in Walton-le-Dale, within the South Ribble area. The requirement covers playground equipment and the associated construction works, including providing and building the completed play area. It is a works contract combining specialist playground equipment supply with site construction and installation. The council is the buying organisation and the delivered facility will be in Walton-le-Dale, Lancashire. This opportunity is therefore relevant to playground manufacturers, play-area specialists, construction contractors, and businesses able to combine equipment supply with practical construction delivery. It may also suit a main contractor working with specialist equipment suppliers or installation partners.

The process has reached tender: South Ribble Borough Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It is a single-lot procurement with a gross estimated value of £240,000. The contract period set by the council runs from 1 February 2027 to 12 March 2027. Enquiries had to be submitted by 5 August 2026 at 12:00, and bids by 17 August 2026 at 12:00. Offers may be submitted electronically through The Chest e-portal, with project reference DN822753, and communications are handled through its messaging portal. Evaluation is weighted 60% price, 25% quality and 15% social value. The lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This opportunity suits suppliers that can provide playground equipment and carry out the associated construction works for a completed play area. Relevant businesses may include playground equipment manufacturers, specialist play-area contractors, construction firms with installation capability, and consortia combining these skills. The requirement rewards both technical delivery quality and the ability to demonstrate social value, alongside competitive pricing. Suppliers should be prepared to deliver a defined, single-site works package and coordinate equipment supply, construction and installation within the stated contract period. The procurement is explicitly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to smaller specialist contractors as well as larger firms with the capacity to manage the whole package.
