## Summary

The Royal Parks Limited, operating from London, has completed the award stage for the procurement of the design and build services for the Diana Princess of Wales Memorial Playground's Galleon and Tree House Encampment in Kensington Gardens. The tender, classified under the "Repair and maintenance services of playground equipment" category, involved a selective negotiated procedure. The procurement saw the award to Timberplay Ltd, an SME based in Sheffield, for a total value of £1,023,046 GBP. The contract period is set from 12th May 2025 to 20th March 2026, following the tender period's conclusion on 16th July 2024.

This award presents significant opportunities for businesses focused on large-scale playground equipment design and installation, particularly those experienced in handling historical or culturally sensitive sites. Companies that can offer unique, innovative designs that align with the aesthetic and safety standards of public parks like those in urban London would have been well-suited for this tender process. The selective nature of the procurement method favours businesses that can demonstrate reliability and high-quality craftsmanship, making it a compelling opportunity for growth within the playground equipment and landscape design sectors.
