UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Greensquare Accord Limited procured playground inspection and maintenance services for its equipped play areas. The requirement covers fortnightly inspections, an annual RoSPA inspection, and maintenance, repair or replacement of playground equipment where necessary. The work applies across 47 equipped play areas in all Greensquare Accord localities. It is a multi-site service combining regular safety checks with planned and responsive maintenance of playground equipment. The relevant work category is repair and maintenance services for playground equipment (CPV 50870000). This opportunity is relevant to contractors that inspect, maintain and repair public or housing-estate play areas, particularly those able to coordinate regular visits and annual independent safety inspections across a geographically distributed estate.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded without competition as a below-threshold direct award. Tony Benger Landscaping Limited was selected as the supplier. The contract was signed on 22 July 2026 and runs from 22 July 2026 to 30 April 2027. Its value is £55,000 excluding VAT and £66,000 including VAT. There is one completed lot covering the full requirement. The contract is active. The published outcome confirms a single supplier for the inspections, maintenance, repairs and equipment replacements across the 47 play areas. As this was a direct award without competition, the process did not evaluate competing bids; the available procurement information does not set out separate quality or price weightings.

This award indicates demand from Greensquare Accord for a specialist playground maintenance provider able to manage a sizeable, distributed estate rather than a single site. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical experience inspecting equipped play areas, identifying safety defects and carrying out repairs or equipment replacements. It would also need the operational capacity to deliver inspections every fortnight across 47 locations, coordinate an annual RoSPA inspection, and respond effectively when maintenance issues arise. Evidence of reliable scheduling, competent playground repair teams, safe working practices and the ability to manage records across multiple sites would strengthen a supplier’s position. The existing award was made to an SME, showing that this scale of service can be delivered by a suitably capable smaller business.
