Summary of the contracting process

The Borough of Telford & Wrekin is procuring works to create a new public open space and playground at Haybridge Avenue in Telford. The requirement covers the complete design and supply of the scheme, removal of existing elements where needed, refurbishment and installation works. The successful contractor will be responsible for delivering a welcoming, inclusive and engaging play environment for children and the wider community, catering for all ages and making effective use of the available site. This is a playground landscaping and construction opportunity, including the physical installation of play and open-space infrastructure. The work is for the local community in Telford, Shropshire, and is being bought by the council as a sub-central public authority.

The procurement reached tender: the council invited offers through an open below-threshold competition. Tenders, including completed design submissions, were to be submitted electronically through the council’s e-sourcing portal, with delivery of completed design submissions to Granville House, St Georges Road, Donnington, Telford, by 12:00 noon on 9 October 2026. Enquiries were accepted until the same deadline. The contract is scheduled to run from 2 January 2027 to 28 February 2027. Its estimated value is £60,000 excluding VAT, or £72,000 including VAT. The award basis is 100% quality with a fixed price. The requirement is presented as one lot and is below the relevant threshold.

This opportunity suits a contractor able to take responsibility for a small, complete public-realm project, from design through supply, site clearance or removal, refurbishment and installation. Relevant capability includes designing and delivering playgrounds and landscaped open spaces, coordinating different site activities, and creating environments that are inclusive, engaging and suitable for users of different ages. Suppliers should be able to turn an available site into a practical community facility within the short stated delivery window, while meeting the council’s quality requirements. The evaluation places all award emphasis on quality, so a strong design approach and evidence of delivering well-considered play or open-space schemes will be important. It is likely to suit an established playground, landscaping or public-realm contractor with in-house design capability or reliable design partners.
