Direct Award - Keswick Terrace Playpark Upgrade

DUNDEE CITY COUNCIL

This public procurement record has 1 release in its history.

Summary of the contracting process

Dundee City Council has completed the procurement process for upgrading the Keswick Terrace Playpark, with the contract awarded to KOMPAN Limited on 27 March 2026. This procurement falls under the 'General public services' category and aims at purchasing playground equipment for Dundee City under the Scotland Excel Framework. The procurement method opted was a direct award without prior publication of a call for competition, specifically conducted via Lot 11 of the Outdoor Play and Sports Facilities framework. The contract, valued at £110,880.80, signifies the award stage of the process, following the buyer's initiation in the tender stage. The involved stakeholders include Dundee City Council as the buyer, KOMPAN Limited as the supplier, and the Dundee Sheriff Court & Justice of the Peace Court as the review body. The procurement primarily targets the infrastructure and construction industry within the Dundee localisation.

This tender presents business growth opportunities for companies specialising in playground equipment and outdoor facilities. Given the direct award procedure and the utilisation of a pre-existing framework, it favours businesses that have established relationships and credibility within public sector frameworks like Scotland Excel. Whilst large companies prosper under such arrangements, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with niche offerings in outdoor play equipment may also benefit by securing similar contracts where pre-award arrangements might allow for a limited competition. Businesses that cater to the general public services segment and have capabilities in manufacturing or supplying playground equipment may find these opportunities particularly advantageous for growth and expansion.
