## Summary

Somerset County Council has completed a public procurement process for the project titled "East Coker Playcourt Surfacing," aimed at upgrading the play court surface at East Coker Primary School in Taunton, South West England. This project, classified under the construction works category, had a total contract value of £47,231. The procurement method used was selective, involving a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded on 30 July 2019, with the work commencing on 8 August 2019 and concluding on 2 September 2019.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in construction works, particularly those experienced in surfacing projects. Companies that are capable of addressing drainage and surface quality issues could significantly benefit from such public contracts, as the project aimed to enhance safety in school environments. The successful supplier, Avalon Surfacing & Construction Co. Ltd., illustrates the potential for local contractors to engage and expand within the public procurement space, particularly in the education sector.

## Notice

East Coker Primary School has a play court with a worn surface and areas of significant ponding. This project aims to upgrade the play court surfacing throughout the rear of the school grounds in order to create a safe play area free from drainage and ponding issues.
