UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Haslemere Town Council is procuring the design, supply and installation of a new playground at High Lane in Haslemere. The requirement covers playground equipment and the associated groundworks needed to deliver a safe, durable and compliant play area. The scope includes design, site set-up, surfacing, foundations, making good and any ancillary works required for completion. This is primarily a playground equipment and recreation installation opportunity, combining manufactured play equipment with site and construction works. The procurement is categorised as goods, although suppliers will need to provide an integrated design-and-installation service at the High Lane site. Businesses may bid for this contract alongside two related playground procurements for other sites.

The process has reached tender: Haslemere Town Council invited offers through an open, below-threshold competition. Tenders may be submitted electronically, with the submission deadline set for 23 October 2026 at 23:59. The contract period is from 1 December 2026 to 19 March 2027. The estimated value is £130,000 excluding VAT, or £156,000 including VAT. There is one contract covering the High Lane playground. Evaluation begins with a pass-or-fail assessment against the criteria in section 8 of the tender specification; submissions that fail are rejected. Remaining submissions are scored from 0 to 5 against weighted criteria set out in the same specification.

This opportunity suits playground manufacturers, specialist play-area designers, and contractors able to deliver equipment installation and associated groundworks as one coordinated service. Relevant capability includes designing compliant play environments, supplying durable playground equipment, preparing sites, constructing foundations, installing safety surfacing, completing making-good works and managing site set-up. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate the capacity to deliver the full scope within the stated contract period and to meet the tender specification’s initial compliance requirements before their submission is scored. Participation is reserved for small and medium-sized enterprises, voluntary, community and social enterprises located in England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland, making it particularly relevant to established UK-based specialist businesses and suitable consortia.
