The procurement process involves the refurbishment of play equipment at the specified area, targeting mainly younger children aged approximately 3-7 years. The deadline for engagement ends on January 27, 2023. The industry category for this tender falls under recreational, cultural, and sporting services. This opportunity is well-suited for businesses dealing with recreational equipment, playground design, and installation services, especially those with a focus on catering to children's needs. The Corsham Town Council seeks to create an engaging and inclusive play space for children and parents, encouraging companies to propose innovative and fun equipment designs. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would find this tender particularly suitable, given its emphasis on catering to a local community need. ## Notice Corsham Town Council is looking to refurbish the play equipment at the Little Play Area, Katherine Park. The Council is seeking a contractor to remove four pieces of old timber equipment, some old posts/footings and associated surfacing, and to design, install and appropriately surface new play equipment in the Little Play Area. The design should mostly cater for younger children (approx. 3-7 years of age). The layout and equipment should be interesting, fun, visually appealing and create a place where children want to go and where parents want to take them. The Town Council feels that there is sufficient room for six pieces of equipment. During consultation with residents, the most requested items were: multi-play (148 votes), swings (134), climbing frame (91), see-saw (85), slide (76), interactive vehicle e.g. car/train (72). Although it was not an option in our consultation 13 respondents asked for a trampoline in the 'any other comments' section. The contractor would be expected to produce a design which included most of these items. We would also expect that some of the equipment would cater for children with disabilities or special educational needs. A specification with further details is attached. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8effca9c-6c00-4b14-b7af-5ef6dfdb8acc | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 9 Dec 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 27 Jan 2023 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CORSHAM TOWN COUNCIL | | Locality | CORSHAM | | Post town | Swindon | | Postcode | SN13 0EZ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK7 Gloucestershire and Wiltshire | | ITL 3 | TLK72 Wiltshire | | Local authority | Wiltshire | | Electoral ward | Corsham Ladbrook | | Westminster constituency | Chippenham | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 92000000 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ## Release History - 9 Dec 2022 at 11:31 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8effca9c-6c00-4b14-b7af-5ef6dfdb8acc ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8effca9c-6c00-4b14-b7af-5ef6dfdb8acc 9th December 2022 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/8345abb3-3af7-4aa3-a8ac-a24ee3ec978b Please refer to the attached Specification before submitting tenders. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
