The project, with a value of £30,000 in GBP, falls under the industry category of "Roundabouts, swings, shooting galleries and other fairground amusements". The tender, using an open procedure, is currently in the planning stage, with the tender period ending on 9th February 2024 and the contract period set from 1st March 2024 to 6th September 2024. The Southam Town Council, as the buyer, is situated at THE GRANGE HALL, COVENTRY ROAD, SOUTHAM, England, with a contact person named Michael Carter reachable at michael@sportsandplayconsulting.co.uk or 07421463099. This tender provides an opportunity for qualified contractors to showcase their creative input and ideas in a design competition aimed at rejuvenating outdated play areas. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would be well-suited to compete for this project, given the Council's preference for seeking external funding to subsidize costs. Businesses specialising in works related to playground equipment and surfacing are encouraged to participate in this tender process for potential growth and collaboration opportunities. ## Notice Southam Town Council is seeking a suitably qualified and experienced contractor to submit a design to install new Playground Equipment, Surfacing and Associated Works at Ascote Way Play Area. This is one of three projects being undertaken simultaneously to improve sites which are outdated and currently not fit for purpose. The Council will fully fund the project; however, suppliers should note that as part of standard practice, they will seek external funding to subsidise the costs, which has been initiated. Although this document sets out specifications, and suggested equipment, this is a design competition that will encourage creative input and ideas, with careful consideration as the sites are restricted in size, along with the other scoring matrix. Each of the three projects will be scored independently, and the Council is not seeking a single supplier to fulfil the requirements, rather the best submission for each site as per the scoring criteria set out in Section 5. of the main tender document. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/98406dc1-520d-48b5-b163-9ccad474f511 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 7 Dec 2023 | | Submission deadline | 9 Feb 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Mar 2024 - 6 Sep 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £30,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SOUTHAM TOWN COUNCIL | | Locality | SOUTHAM | | Post town | Coventry | | Postcode | CV47 1QA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG1 Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Warwickshire | | ITL 3 | TLG13 Warwickshire CC | | Local authority | Stratford-on-Avon | | Electoral ward | Southam West | | Westminster constituency | Kenilworth and Southam | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 37 - Musical instruments, sport goods, games, toys, handicraft, art materials and accessories ### Codes - 37535000 - Roundabouts, swings, shooting galleries and other fairground amusements ## Release History - 7 Dec 2023 at 11:00 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/98406dc1-520d-48b5-b163-9ccad474f511 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/98406dc1-520d-48b5-b163-9ccad474f511 7th December 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/4bcb1199-35fa-4baf-811b-50679d186c7c Form of Tender - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/f7549e8f-cfc5-4187-b572-7937cdc23112 Warranty and Reference Information - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/8eb6ea8f-781f-4731-a144-52fe277dc859 Building Agreement - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/df9d2f32-8ac2-4f85-9d3b-46e81ce3ddcc Main Tender Document ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
