UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Borough of Telford & Wrekin is procuring works to upgrade open space at Millfields Road. The requirement is to remove and dispose of existing materials, then design, supply and install a play environment suitable for children and people of all ages in the local community. The works include flatwork for a children’s play area. Delivery is associated with Telford, Shropshire, although the procurement data records the delivery country as the United Kingdom. This is a public-sector construction and play-space improvement opportunity, rather than a supply-only contract. It may suit a main contractor or specialist play-area contractor able to manage design, site preparation, disposal, equipment supply and installation as one coordinated delivery package.

The procurement reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open, below-threshold competition. Electronic submission is allowed. Questions and tenders had to be submitted by 2 October 2026 at 12:00. The contract is for one lot, with work scheduled from 15 February 2027 to 28 February 2027. The estimated procurement value is £110,000 excluding VAT, or £132,000 including VAT, in GBP. Offers are evaluated on quality at 80%, price at 10% and social value at 10%. Participation is reserved for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises established in the United Kingdom. The tender documents are accessed through the Telford & Wrekin electronic tendering service.

This opportunity suits an SME or voluntary, community or social enterprise with practical experience delivering public play areas or related outdoor works. Strong candidates will be able to survey or prepare an existing open-space site, safely remove and dispose of materials, develop a design for an inclusive all-ages play environment, and source and install the required play equipment and associated surfacing or flatwork. The requirement favours businesses that can take responsibility for the full design-and-build sequence, coordinate site activities and complete a short, concentrated programme of works. Contractors should also be prepared to demonstrate a high-quality delivery approach and credible social-value contribution, since quality is the dominant evaluation consideration and social value forms part of the assessment.
