## Summary

Bridgend County Borough Council has completed a procurement process under the title "Q1512 - Construction of Gerddi Castell Childrens Play Park" in Bridgend, Wales. This project, aimed at enhancing playground facilities, falls under the category of landscaping work for playgrounds. The procurement process, conducted via a limited competition method, was concluded with the award made on 1st July 2026 and the contract start date on 6th July 2026, projected to end on 25th September 2026. The contract value is approximately £149,997.71. The procurement process adhered to the Welsh devolved regulations and was governed by the UK Procurement Act 2023, ensuring compliance with local legislation and safety standards for playground installations.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities, particularly for enterprises specialising in playground construction, landscaping, and accessibility solutions. Small to medium enterprises with expertise in the installation of play equipment, drainage systems, and surfacing would find this project aligned with their capabilities. The requirement for Constructionline accreditation at a Bronze level or higher and SSIP accreditation indicates that businesses with strong safety records and verified credentials would be competitive candidates for similar future projects. This could serve as a stepping stone for suppliers aiming to establish a firm presence in the sub-central government projects and public authority contracts in the UK.
