## Summary

South Hams District Council has awarded a contract for the renewal of play areas at Woolwell, Totnes, Dartington, and South Brent. The tender process involved designing, supplying, and installing playground equipment at these four locations. The procurement was conducted using an open competition method, specifically below the threshold. The award was finalised on 11th February 2026, with the installation scheduled for completion by the end of May 2026. This project belongs to the construction and equipment industry category and covers regions such as UKK43. The Council, located in Totnes, aims for the design finalisation by 19th December 2025 with the contract period starting on 5th January 2026. The total contract value is approximately £226,773.96.
