Summary of the contracting process

Mere Town Council’s playground improvement project involved designing, supplying and installing equipment at the Playground in Mere Rec, Mere. The works combine playground equipment with park landscaping. The council sought suitably qualified and experienced playground designers and contractors to improve the existing recreation-ground playground. The recorded delivery locations span England, while the specific project is at Mere Rec in Mere. The requirement therefore covered both design and on-site delivery, rather than equipment supply alone.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Proludic Limited. The contract was signed on 28 September 2026 and runs from 12 October to 20 November 2026. Its value is £100,000 excluding VAT (£120,000 including VAT). The opportunity was divided into one lot, covering the playground improvement works. The process was identified as a below-threshold procurement; no further procedure detail is available in the recorded outcome. The contract is active. The recorded information gives no award date separate from the contract signature date.

For suppliers considering similar work for Mere Town Council, this award demonstrates demand for a combined playground design, equipment supply and installation service at a local recreation ground. A credible competitor would need relevant playground design and contracting experience, the ability to specify and supply suitable equipment, and the capacity to carry out the installation and associated park landscaping as one coordinated project. The council’s stated requirement for suitably qualified and experienced suppliers points to the importance of demonstrating both technical competence and a track record delivering playground improvements. This is a relatively contained, single-site works project, suited to a supplier able to manage design through installation rather than provide equipment alone.
