UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Fermanagh and Omagh District Council is seeking a contractor to build a new playpark at Riverside Walk, Dromore. The works include construction and civil engineering, playground landscaping and surfacing, and the supply and installation of play equipment. The procurement also covers park and playground equipment and playground-equipment maintenance. The council says the project is funded by the Special EU Programmes Body and the council itself. The delivery location is Dromore, in the Fermanagh and Omagh District Council area of Northern Ireland. This is a construction opportunity for firms able to deliver a complete recreational play area, rather than a purchase of equipment alone; the detailed specification is set out in the tender documents.

The council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The tender deadline set by the buyer was 11 November 2026 at 12:00, and the deadline for enquiries was 4 November 2026 at 12:00. The planned contract period runs from 1 December 2026 to 31 March 2027. The estimated value is £310,000 excluding VAT (£372,000 including VAT). The procurement is arranged as one lot. Bids are assessed on quality, weighted at 60%, and cost, weighted at 40%. Electronic submission is allowed, with bids submitted through the eTendersNI portal.

This opportunity is suited to playpark and recreational-facility contractors able to coordinate construction, civil engineering, playground surfacing and landscaping, and installation of play equipment within a single project. Suppliers with experience delivering safe, usable children’s play areas and managing the interfaces between groundworks, surfaces and equipment are likely to be well placed to compete. The broad scope may also suit a principal contractor working with specialist equipment or landscaping subcontractors. The short, defined delivery programme calls for the capacity to mobilise promptly and complete the works within the stated contract period. Quality carries greater evaluation weight than cost, so bidders should be prepared to demonstrate the quality of their proposed delivery, alongside a competitive price.
