## Summary

Somerset Council has conducted a procurement process for the creation of a Special Educational Needs (SEN) base at Holway Community Primary School, involving the refurbishment of the existing school playground. This project, situated in Taunton, UKK23 region, is underpinned by UK legal regulation 2023/54 and has been handled through a direct procurement method, indicating a below-threshold and non-competitive approach. The contract was awarded on the 19th of June, 2026, with the implementation phase scheduled from July 20th to September 30th, 2026. The procurement process has reached the award and contract stages, marking it as complete.

This tender presents a noteworthy opportunity for businesses within the construction sector, particularly those specialising in school refurbishment and playground equipment. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like ABACUS CONSTRUCTION LIMITED, which won the contract, would be well-suited for such projects. Companies with experience in delivering goods-handling equipment and public authority contracts would find this procurement process advantageous for business growth, as it involves both the provision of materials and the application of associated construction services.
