Summary of the contracting process

Caerphilly County Borough Council is procuring works to replace the soft play surface at Hengoed Primary School’s SRB play yard in Hengoed, Wales. The project involves removing the existing soft play, preparing the surface to receive soft play crumb, and supplying and fitting the new crumb surface. The requirement is classified as playground landscaping work, with associated building construction and playground equipment repair and maintenance activities. The work is for a school play area and must be delivered at Hengoed Primary School. This opportunity is relevant to contractors experienced in playground surfacing, soft play installation, landscaping or related construction and maintenance works, particularly businesses able to manage a complete removal, preparation, supply and installation package.

The procurement has reached the tender stage: the council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It comprises one lot, with a value of £60,000 excluding VAT and £72,000 including VAT. Questions had to be submitted through the supplier portal by 14 September 2026 at 23:59. Tender submissions were due through the portal by 21 September 2026 at 12:00, with electronic submission allowed. The contract period is 26 October 2026 to 2 November 2026. The project must be completed by 30 October 2026. The contract will be awarded solely on price: total project cost based on the pricing schedule carries 100% of the weighting. The opportunity is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This requirement suits a small or medium-sized contractor that can deliver playground surface replacement as a complete package. Relevant capability includes safely removing existing soft-play materials, preparing the underlying surface to the required standard, supplying suitable soft-play crumb and installing it to produce a finished school play area. Contractors with practical experience in playground landscaping, soft-play installation, building or playground equipment maintenance are well placed to compete. The successful supplier will need to coordinate the removal, ground or surface preparation, material supply and fitting within the short contract period and meet the project specification in the invitation to tender. Firms with established delivery teams, appropriate equipment and reliable access to compliant soft-play materials are likely to be suited to the work.
