## Summary

The Countesthorpe Parish Council is seeking suppliers for the "Supply and Installation of play equipment and associated groundworks" at the Leysland Play Area, classified under works with a primary focus on playground equipment. The procurement method employed is a direct single tender action, as the contract value of £35,000 is below the threshold typically requiring a competitive tendering process. The tender period concluded on 18th January 2019, while the contract period is set to commence on 24th February 2019 and extend until 31st March 2019. The estimated minimum contract value is £18,000, with delivery expected at a location in Leicester with the postal code LE8 5XP.
