UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Isle of Wight Council procured playground equipment for supply and installation across the Isle of Wight. The requirement covers playground equipment as goods, together with the associated installation work. The council is the public-sector buyer and the equipment is intended for delivery and use within the Isle of Wight. The procurement was arranged as a single requirement rather than separate published lots. This is relevant to manufacturers, distributors, specialist playground contractors and suppliers able to provide complete equipment packages, including delivery and installation. Businesses serving local-authority play, parks, recreation or community infrastructure requirements may find the buying organisation and scope commercially relevant, particularly where they can support projects on the Isle of Wight.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The contract was awarded to KOMPAN LIMITED and signed on 30 June 2026. It is an active contract running from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027. The contract value is £150,000 excluding VAT, or £180,000 including VAT. The council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The requirement was evaluated and awarded through that non-competitive route rather than an open tender. One completed lot is recorded, covering the playground equipment supply and installation requirement. The awarded supplier is a UK small or medium-sized enterprise. No separate award amount is published apart from the contract value.

This procurement provides a clear indication of the Isle of Wight Council’s demand for supplied and installed playground equipment at a substantial single-contract scale. Competitors would need a dependable range of playground products, the technical ability to plan and install equipment safely, and the operational capacity to manage delivery and site work across the Isle of Wight. Experience delivering complete playground packages for public-sector or community settings would help demonstrate credibility, as would robust arrangements for installation teams, logistics, project coordination and aftercare. Equipment manufacturers, specialist distributors and installation contractors may be well placed, especially businesses able to combine supply and installation rather than provide products alone. The chosen route also shows that the council can use direct, below-threshold purchasing for this requirement.
