## Summary

The Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council is conducting a completed procurement process titled "Improvements to Harrison Close Play Area", focusing on the supply and installation of playground equipment. This project falls under the goods category with a CPV classification of "Playground equipment".

The tender attracted a total value of £90,779, with a minimum value of £60,875, and is situated in the West Midlands region of the United Kingdom.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in the provision of playground equipment and landscaping services, particularly small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) due to its suitability criterion.

The contractor engagement, especially with local councils, can foster community relationships and potentially lead to further contracts in similar public sector projects.
