This procurement process, classified under the construction industry, is in the planning stage, with expressions of interest due by 23rd March 2022. The project has a budget of £100,000 and will be conducted through an open procurement method, allowing for a wider range of potential contractors to participate. The contract period is set to commence on 1st January 2023 and conclude on 31st March 2023, with the project located in Saffron Walden, UK. This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, especially for businesses specialising in construction, outdoor play equipment, and water play installations. Companies that can provide high-quality equipment with industry-standard warranties and can demonstrate extensive experience through current installations are particularly well-suited to compete. As the town council aims to engage with innovative ideas for the play area, creative firms with a strong design capability and the ability to meet insurance requirements will find a promising avenue for collaboration and business expansion. ## Notice SWTC at this stage is seeking contractors interested in the project, we are currently hosting a four-week public consultation to better understand the likes and dislikes of the current play area and this will help when finalising designs. Our specification and requirements include: * A splash park of 234m2, mains once used system and holding tanks. * Refurbished play area - which is known as an "older children's" play area including a rope climbing frame and zip wire which we would like to see retained, but we are open to new and exciting ideas. * All installed equipment and wet pour must have standard industry warranties and provided at times of quotes. * Please provide details of current installations to the Town Council who may then subsequently visit each site to evaluate the standard and quality of equipment and installation At this stage, this is purely an expression of interest to tender for the works and a selection process will be undertaken and three suitable contractors will be contacted for tender. All contractors must hold the following insurance: o Employers liability - PS10,000,000 o Public liability - PS10,000,000 o Products liability - PS5,000,000 When submitting your expression of interest, please provide evidence of your insurance cover.
