UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Haslemere Town Council is seeking a supplier to design, supply and install new playground equipment at Lion Green in Haslemere. The requirement covers a complete play-area project, including playground equipment, site set-up, surfacing, foundations, making good and all associated groundworks and ancillary works needed to provide a safe, durable and compliant facility. This is primarily a playground equipment and recreation-installation opportunity, suitable for contractors that can combine design, equipment manufacture or supply, construction and site delivery. The council has indicated that separate, related playground procurements are being issued for two other sites, and suppliers may submit bids for one or more of the three contracts. The work is for a public outdoor recreation facility.

The procurement has reached tender: Haslemere Town Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Electronic submission is allowed, with submissions directed through the council’s website or the clerk’s email address. The tender deadline set by the council is 23 October 2026 at 23:59. The contract period is 1 December 2026 to 19 March 2027. The estimated value is £250,000 excluding VAT, or £300,000 including VAT. The initial assessment is pass or fail against requirements in the tender specification; compliant submissions are then scored from 0 to 5 against weighted criteria set out in that specification. Participation is reserved for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This opportunity suits an SME or VCSE playground specialist, landscape contractor, civil engineering business or multidisciplinary supplier able to take responsibility for a complete installation rather than supplying equipment alone. Relevant capability includes producing or interpreting playground designs, supplying suitable play equipment, preparing sites, installing foundations and surfacing, completing groundworks, making good disturbed areas and delivering a safe, durable and compliant play space. Suppliers should be able to coordinate design, site set-up, construction and installation activities as one delivery package, with the operational capacity to complete the works within the council’s required contract period. Businesses with experience of public outdoor recreation projects, playground compliance and construction quality assurance are particularly well placed to address the pass-or-fail requirements and then compete on the weighted scoring criteria.
