## Summary

Westminster City Council is undertaking a procurement process in the planning stage for a project titled "Design and Build Contractor for Inclusive Playground at St Mary’s Churchyard on Paddington Green." The procurement aims to engage a contractor for construction work within the playground equipment and landscaping industry categories.

This tender presents a significant business growth opportunity, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in playground construction and landscaping services. Companies specialising in providing inclusive playground equipment and children's play area flatwork are particularly well-suited to compete, given the project's focus. The procurement process, with an estimated gross amount of £1,080,000, offers a substantial contract period extending until January 2028, providing businesses a stable work pipeline.
