This tender was classified under the industry category of playground equipment and aimed to procure goods. The delivery location was specified as Peterborough, with regions UKH11 and UKH12 mentioned. The tender was completed with an awarded contract valued at £153,000, signed on 13th January 2026. Previously, the tender timeline included a submission deadline on 14th March 2025 and followed an open procedure covered by the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA).

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in educational landscape design and playground equipment manufacturing. The criteria included a 60% focus on non-financial quality, which could be appealing to companies excelling in innovative and sustainable playground designs. The procurement process attracted a total of four bids, indicating a competitive environment where businesses with unique offerings and cost-effective solutions had the potential to succeed. Large enterprises like PHOENIX PLAY LIMITED were among successful bidders, suggesting that both medium and large-scale businesses with robust design capabilities and efficient project management might find lucrative opportunities in similar future tenders from PKAT and other educational bodies.
