This project, classified under recreational-area services, aims to enhance the existing play and sports facilities located at the Charles Cowper Playing Field, Warwick Road, Upper Boddington, NN11 6DH. Interested suppliers should note that the tender period closes on 25th May 2018, with the contract period scheduled to commence on 9th July 2018 and conclude by 3rd August 2018. The total budget for this project is £75,000, and the procurement method chosen is a single tender action below the threshold. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for companies specialising in playground design and construction, particularly those with a strong track record in community-focused projects. Businesses experienced in delivering accessible facilities that cater to various age groups will be well-positioned to compete. Given the emphasis on health and safety, suppliers must demonstrate excellent compliance records, making this an ideal project for established firms in the health and safety management sector alongside those offering recreational equipment solutions. ## Notice Boddington Parish Council ('BPC') recently completed a Parish Survey which informed the Parish Plan that was adopted in January 2018. Parishioners have clearly expressed a desire to replace the existing play equipment with improved play equipment and sports facilities to be located close to the Village Hall on the Charles Cowper Playing Field Warwick Road, Upper Boddington NN11 6DH. The whole site is reasonably level having once been the village cricket ground and provides wheelchair access, parking and access to the Village Hall facilities (when open). BPC is seeking a suitably experienced and qualified company to design and build a new community playground. The supplier will need to have proven and demonstrated experience in similar projects and the wide ranging skill base to achieve the various elements of the contract which include client and user group liaison, design, construction and installation of a community playground, health & safety management and defect diagnosis and rectification. The supplier must be able to demonstrate an excellent Health and Safety record, accordingly suppliers that cannot demonstrate an excellent record, free from enforcement action, will not be considered. The supplier must also demonstrate that all practicable steps are being taken to allow equal access and equal treatment in employment and service delivery, as appropriate to the nature of the contract. BPC has applied for grant funding of PS75,000 for this project and if successful delivery and installation is to take place during the summer of 2018. In addition BPC may be able to supplement the grant to a very limited extent. If the grant application is unsuccessful the project will be delayed until alternative funding is found and the project may need to be delivered in phases as funds become available. A single supplier is preferred. The Community playground is to have accessibility at the heart of its design and should offer opportunities for all age groups. The design should include a zip-wire, a roundabout, a slide, swings, climbing equipment, tree house and trampoline. The final design brief will be agreed with the successful supplier. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a6f41e9e-b41c-45bf-91bd-79f7e5ec8d5a | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Direct | | Procurement method details | Single tender action (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 24 Apr 2018 | | Submission deadline | 25 May 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 8 Jul 2018 - 3 Aug 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £75,000 | | 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 | BODDINGTON PARISH COUNCIL | | Locality | UPPER BODDINGTON | | Post town | Northampton | | Postcode | NN11 6DJ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF2 Leicestershire, Rutland and Northamptonshire | | ITL 3 | TLF24 West Northamptonshire | | Local authority | West Northamptonshire | | Electoral ward | Silverstone | | Westminster constituency | Daventry | | Delivery location | TLF East Midlands (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 92330000 - Recreational-area services ## Release History - 24 Apr 2018 at 18:16 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a6f41e9e-b41c-45bf-91bd-79f7e5ec8d5a ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a6f41e9e-b41c-45bf-91bd-79f7e5ec8d5a 24th April 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/2c5e6ad0-c995-4aee-8896-f465d39da37f ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
