## Summary

The Bath and North East Somerset Council is currently in the tender stage of a procurement process for the replacement of play equipment and safer surfacing in four parks. This contract, titled "Replacement of individual pieces of play equipment and safer surfacing", has an estimated value of £45,000 and is categorised under playground equipment. The tender was published on 23rd November 2021 and will close for submissions by 12:00 on 23rd December 2021. The procurement method being employed is the open procedure, which allows any interested suppliers to submit their proposals.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for manufacturers and suppliers of playground equipment, particularly those specialising in slides and seesaws. Businesses capable of providing safe and compliant play equipment, along with expertise in the installation and maintenance of such products, will find this contract a suitable chance for growth. Additionally, the council's commitment to maintaining community play areas could foster ongoing partnerships for future developments and replacements in the region.

## Notice

The Council wishes to establish a contract for the replacement of three pedestal slides and safer surfacing in three play areas, plus a pedestal slide and a see-saw in a fourth play area. The Council is managing this procurement in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations. This is a goods and services contract being procured under the Open procedure. The existing slides have already reached end of life and the tops have been removed (cut at just below ground level). We wish to replace these with new slides in the same places (it may be possible to incorporate the existing surfaces as sub-bases for the new safer surfaces). On one site (Writhlington), we also wish to replace a see-saw in addition to the slide.
