Summary of the contracting process

Great Yarmouth Borough Council is seeking works to improve Gorleston Cliffs Play Area. The project covers redesigning and refurbishing the playground, installing new play equipment and providing associated items and works, including park landscaping. The site is at Marine Parade, Gorleston, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk. East Suffolk Council is managing the procurement for Great Yarmouth Borough Council. This is a playground improvement project combining equipment supply and installation with refurbishment and landscaping, suited to contractors able to deliver the site works and coordinate the different elements of the upgrade.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure. The procurement has reached the tender stage. There is one lot. The deadline for enquiries was 27 October 2026 at 15:00, and the submission deadline set by the buyer is 10 November 2026 at 12:00. The contract is scheduled to run from 30 November 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its estimated value is £69,000 excluding VAT (£82,800 including VAT). The buyer set an evaluation weighting of 65% for quality and 35% for price. The stated deadline for the award decision is 27 November 2026.

This opportunity is suited to playground contractors and park improvement specialists able to redesign and refurbish an existing play area, supply and install play equipment, and carry out associated landscaping and ancillary works. Suppliers will need the practical capacity to coordinate equipment installation with on-site works and complete the project within its scheduled delivery period. The quality-led evaluation means bidders should be prepared to demonstrate the strength of their proposed solution, delivery approach and relevant experience, alongside competitive pricing. Equipment suppliers working with capable installation and landscaping partners may also be well placed to deliver the combined scope. The work is a single-site improvement project rather than a multi-location programme.
