This project falls under the industry category of "Playground equipment" (CPV code: 37535200). The playground equipment is outdated and needs replacement, with some items possibly being retained and refurbished. The tender, currently in the active stage, was published on 23 September 2024, and responses are due by 17:00 on 1 November 2024. The contract period is set from 1 March 2025 to 30 April 2025. The budget for this project ranges from £82,000 to £88,000, using an open procedure above the threshold. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in playground equipment design, manufacture, and construction. Companies experienced in creating engaging and safe play environments for children will find this project particularly suitable. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, given the project’s suitability criteria. The successful contractor will not only gain from the contract value but also enhance their portfolio with a high-visibility project tied to a respected local council, potentially opening doors to future municipal projects and community endeavours. ## Notice Sunninghill & Ascot Parish Council is responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the equipment and facilities that comprise the children's playground known as the Playground, located at South Ascot Recreation Ground, Victoria Road, South Ascot, Berkshire, SL5 9DR.
