Summary of the contracting process

Castle Point Borough Council required outdoor sports and play facilities across recreation grounds in its area. This procurement covered Lot 1: the design, supply and installation of new multi-use games arenas (MUGAs), providing enclosed spaces for several sports and recreational activities. The identified sites were Woodside Park, Thundersley Common Recreation Ground, South Benfleet Playing Fields and King George V Playing Fields. The work is classified as recreation installation and falls within the construction and leisure facilities sector. It was intended for experienced contractors able to manage the complete delivery of MUGAs, from design through supply and installation, across multiple public recreation sites in the Castle Point area of Essex.

The procurement is complete and Lot 1 was awarded following a competitive selective procedure, using a below-threshold award under a framework. KOMPAN LIMITED was selected for an award of £249,858.47 gross. The award date was 27 August 2026. The awarded contract period runs from 15 September 2026 to 15 December 2026, with signature scheduled for 14 September 2026. The requirement was divided into two lots, and suppliers could bid for either or both; this award relates only to Lot 1. Appointment to one lot did not guarantee appointment to the other. The process was below the relevant threshold and the award was competitive.

This award shows Castle Point Borough Council’s demand for complete multi-use games arena delivery across several recreation grounds, rather than a single-site supply-only purchase. A credible future competitor would need experience designing, supplying and installing outdoor sports and play facilities, with the practical capacity to coordinate works across multiple public sites. Relevant capability includes site planning, construction management, installation, health and safety control, and handover of completed recreation facilities. Suppliers should also be comfortable competing through a framework-based route and responding to a selective procedure. KOMPAN LIMITED’s selection indicates that a specialist leisure, sports infrastructure or play-facilities contractor with end-to-end delivery capability is well placed for this type of requirement.
