Summary of the contracting process

Epsom and Ewell Borough Council is procuring playground equipment for a new woodland playground on the London Road side of Nonsuch Park. The project addresses limited play provision for younger children, particularly toddlers and preschool children, and is intended to provide safe, engaging outdoor play. It supports inclusive play and community wellbeing while complementing existing park facilities. The delivery location is Nonsuch Park in Epsom, Surrey. The main requirement is playground equipment (CPV 37535200), rather than a broader park development or general grounds-maintenance service.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to PROLUDIC LIMITED. The award was made on 19 October 2026, with a value of £49,800 excluding VAT (£59,760 including VAT). The contract period runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 March 2027, with an option to extend by two months, to a maximum extent of 31 May 2027. There was one lot, marked suitable for SMEs. The council used a direct award below the procurement threshold, without competition; the published data does not describe evaluation criteria. The award is active, and a signature milestone was scheduled for 31 October 2026.

For suppliers considering similar future requirements from Epsom and Ewell Borough Council, this award shows demand for playground equipment designed for younger children in a public park setting. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate that its equipment can support safe, engaging play for toddlers and preschool children and contribute to inclusive use of the park. The buyer’s stated aim is to fill a gap in local provision while complementing existing facilities, so suppliers able to deliver equipment that fits an established park environment would be relevant. This was a single-lot purchase awarded directly without competition, so the selected supplier’s success does not establish a competitive evaluation model or particular accreditation requirements.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Nonsuch Park Woodland Playground

Notice Description

The London Roadside of Nonsuch Park currently has limited play opportunities for younger children, particularly those in the early years age group. As a result, families with toddlers and preschool children have fewer opportunities to enjoy safe, engaging outdoor play in this part of the park. This investment will support local priorities around inclusive play, community wellbeing, and sustainable park development, while complement existing facilities and addressing a clear gap in provision.
