Summary of the contracting process

Great Yarmouth Borough Council is seeking improvements to the play area at Martham Playing Field, Playing Field Lane, off Rollesby Road, Martham, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk. The works cover redesigning and refurbishing the existing play area, installing new play equipment and supplying associated items and works. The requirement includes playground equipment and landscaping work for a park. East Suffolk Council is managing the procurement on the borough council’s behalf. The work is to be carried out at Martham Playing Field Play Area.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure. The procurement is a single lot, with bids assessed on quality (65%) and price (35%). The enquiry deadline set by the buyer was 27 October 2026 at 3pm, and the submission deadline was 10 November 2026 at noon. The stated contract period runs from 30 November 2026 to 31 March 2027. The estimated value is £89,000 excluding VAT (£106,800 including VAT). The award decision was scheduled for 27 November 2026.

This opportunity suits contractors able to redesign and refurbish a public play area, install playground equipment and deliver associated site works, including park landscaping. Suppliers will need to bring the practical capability to coordinate equipment installation with work to the existing play space and its surroundings. The quality-led evaluation gives technical proposals substantial weight alongside price, so bidders should be prepared to demonstrate how their approach meets the required outcome, as well as their delivery capability. The work is focused on one local play area and is a short, defined project, suited to a supplier with capacity to complete the refurbishment and installation within the stated contract period.
