This procurement falls under the industry category of Sporting Services, particularly focusing on the repair and maintenance of playground equipment. The tender is currently in the active stage and employs an open procurement method, with a deadline for submissions set for 20th September 2017. The estimated budget for this project is £45,000, and the contract is expected to commence on 5th October 2017 and conclude by 1st March 2018. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in leisure facilities and playground equipment. Companies that can offer innovative solutions, particularly for children aged 0 to 7 years, will find this procurement relevant. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the project seeks to cater to community needs while enhancing customer experience within the leisure sector. The focus on aligning the new play area with hospitality services further broadens the scope for businesses in that domain. ## Notice One Leisure Huntingdon is about to go through a major redevelopment, mainly focused around the gym. Currently the 'Funzone' is situated directly above our gym and it is felt that to remove the current play provision and extend the gym to both floors is our best option. With the success of the' Funzone' we are keen to keep a facility of soft play but we are looking at changing that provision to the current customer needs by reducing the age range to 0 - 7 years and concentrating on delivering a great experience for that age range. As Hospitality plays such a vital role in the success for the 'Funzone' we have a desire to move both hospitality and the 'Funzone' to the ground floor. Any proposed solution will need to fit into any the programme of rebuild/refurbishment work with removal of the old 'Funzone' programmed for the mid - end of October to make space for the new extended gym facilities. Once the new gym is completed, the old gym equipment can be removed, the room made good (eg: walls re-plastered) and space made available for the installation of the new 'Funzone'. Depending on timely progress with the refurbishment the space for the new 'Funzone' should be available mid-end February. As the installation of the 'Funzone' is the last element of the project time taken to complete is important. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f3ac1ee4-36c7-45bf-988d-9771b9a843a9 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 22 Aug 2017 | | Submission deadline | 20 Sep 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 4 Oct 2017 - 1 Mar 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £45,000 | | 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 | HUNTINGDONSHIRE DISTRICT COUNCILS | | Locality | HUNTINGDON | | Post town | Peterborough | | Postcode | PE29 3TN | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH4 Cambridgeshire and Peterborough | | ITL 3 | TLH42 Cambridgeshire CC | | Local authority | Huntingdonshire | | Electoral ward | Huntingdon North | | Westminster constituency | Huntingdon | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 50 - Repair and maintenance services - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 50870000 - Repair and maintenance services of playground equipment - 92600000 - Sporting services ## Release History - 22 Aug 2017 at 12:32 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f3ac1ee4-36c7-45bf-988d-9771b9a843a9 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f3ac1ee4-36c7-45bf-988d-9771b9a843a9 22nd August 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=b91f83cc-3487-e711-80e4-005056b64545 Advert ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
