The procurement process is in the planning stage, with key milestones including an engagement end date set for 31 July 2021. The tender is expected to be finalised in the new financial year commencing 1 April 2021. Contractors interested in the project can participate in early discussions to provide input, and site visits are available for potential bidders. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in playground construction and equipment, particularly those with experience in designing inclusive play environments. Companies that can provide innovative solutions for playground amenities, such as swings, climbing apparatus, and slides, will find a competitive edge in this bidding process. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the contract aims to attract capable local contractors to enhance community recreational facilities. ## Notice Ingatestone and Fryerning Parish Council (IFPC) are looking to renovate their very popular Fairfield children's playground in the new financial year commencing 1st April 2021. The existing playground has been in-situ for decades and funds are available for a new, inclusive playground covering the age range from toddler to 11 year olds. IFPC are keen to work with playground contractors to create vision boards for the project which will be put out to public consultation, with the most popular option chosen. All tenderers will be given the same budget. At this stage, we are asking interested parties to contact us to discuss the project. We are in very early stages at this time and are looking to gather information on companies interested in tendering. Site visits can be arranged and information emailed if required. This project will be finalised in the next financial year. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/99c8c1b0-18a7-4415-80d3-192445e5659a | | 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 | 11 May 2021 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 31 Jul 2021 | | 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 | Cancelled | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | INGATESTONE AND FRYERNING PARISH COUNCIL | | Locality | INGATESTONE | | Post town | Chelmsford | | Postcode | CM4 0BE | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH3 Essex | | ITL 3 | TLH36 Heart of Essex | | Local authority | Brentwood | | Electoral ward | Ingatestone, Fryerning & Mountnessing | | Westminster constituency | Brentwood and Ongar | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 37 - Musical instruments, sport goods, games, toys, handicraft, art materials and accessories ### Codes - 37535100 - Swings - 37535200 - Playground equipment - 37535210 - Playground swings - 37535220 - Playground climbing apparatus - 37535230 - Playground merry go rounds - 37535240 - Playground slides - 37535250 - Playground see saws - 37535260 - Playground tunnels ## Release History - 11 May 2021 at 13:33 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/99c8c1b0-18a7-4415-80d3-192445e5659a - 19 Nov 2020 at 11:40 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/54d8cd14-07fb-4f2e-bec8-8f96c488a742 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/99c8c1b0-18a7-4415-80d3-192445e5659a 11th May 2021 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/54d8cd14-07fb-4f2e-bec8-8f96c488a742 19th November 2020 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/bd0a3702-b518-4115-95d3-fa731e9915ed Photo of existing playground ## Notice URLs - http://www.ingatestone-fryerningpc.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
