This procurement, categorised under playground equipment within the works industry, is situated in Cookham, Berkshire. The tender process is currently in the active stage, having been published on 8 September 2021, with a closing date for submissions set for 7 October 2021. The total value of the project is estimated at £80,000, and the procurement method is an open procedure below threshold. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in design and construction, particularly those with expertise in creating inclusive and innovative play areas. Companies that excel in local community engagement, low-maintenance landscaping, and value-driven projects will be well-suited to compete. This project not only encourages the renovation of existing play structures but also invites fresh ideas that connect with the community's cultural narrative, such as the "Wind in the Willows" theme, enhancing the potential for sustained business growth through community-focused initiatives. ## Notice Your design submission is invited for the design, renovation and construction of an existing play area on the Alfred Major Recreation Ground, Cookham, Berkshire. The principal objective is to maximise the play and leisure value of the site for all children of all abilities, as well as having regard to the suitability of your design to the location and the surrounding area. The submission will be evaluated on the basis of play value, innovation, inclusivity, value for money, durability, & aesthetics. We encourage the renovation of existing equipment and are open to its repositioning if required. The proposed new and renovated play area will be located in the position of the existing play area and to a configuration of your choosing. A play area design emphasising the local connection with the "Wind in the Willows" book will be viewed positively. The play area must be appropriately fenced to exclude dogs and to retain young children in the play area. Planting and landscaping can also be used to define play areas and separate from uses. De-signs should be low maintenance and add movement, colour and scent to the site without looking too ornamental. After first submissions a public consultation will take place, received feedback will make up part of the evaluation. The tender submitters needs to provide the necessary materials (e.g. drawings) to support such a Community Consultation event. A second round of the tender will draw on all submissions and feedback and may include changes to the brief. Design changes should be factored in the final costs. Applications via email to office@cookhamparishcouncil.org.uk Additional information: We require a breakdown of the cost for the five (5) parts of the project. Total Play area: 1. Age range 3 years to 12 years a. Play area b. Fencing and securing c. Planting 2. A separate teen (14years+) area, at a central Recreation Ground location.
