Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hammersmith and Fuham is procuring works to upgrade the playground at Rowberry Mead Open Space in London. The requirement covers the supply and installation of playground equipment, together with associated construction work. This is a practical, site-based opportunity for contractors able to deliver playground improvement works from equipment supply through to installation. The procurement is for one defined requirement at the named open-space location, rather than a wider programme of playground works. Businesses should assess their ability to coordinate equipment provision, site installation and construction activities in a public outdoor setting before deciding whether to pursue the opportunity.

The procurement has reached the tender stage: the buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The enquiry deadline set by the buyer was 16 September 2026 at 12:00, and the tender submission deadline was 25 September 2026 at 12:00. The contract is scheduled to run from 2 November 2026 to 31 January 2027. The gross estimated value is £54,000. Bids may be submitted electronically, and suppliers must register on the Capital eSourcing tender portal to access the tender. The requirement is a single lot. The award will use criteria set out in the Volume 1 procurement document, which contains the dedicated criterion weightings.

This opportunity suits small and medium-sized enterprises, as the single lot is explicitly identified as suitable for SMEs. Suppliers well placed to compete will be able to provide playground equipment and manage its installation as construction works at Rowberry Mead Open Space. Relevant businesses may include playground equipment suppliers with installation teams, specialist playground contractors, and construction firms experienced in coordinating outdoor recreational projects. The short, defined contract period favours organisations with the capacity to arrange procurement, site activity and installation within the required delivery window. Contractors should be comfortable working for a London local authority and meeting the technical requirements and evaluation criteria in the procurement documents.
