## Summary

On 3rd August 2026, the Council of the City of Wakefield finalised the procurement process for the "Baker Lane Play Area upgrade" project in Wakefield, United Kingdom. This process involved upgrading an existing play area with new equipment and safety measures, classified under the works industry category. The procurement was initiated below the threshold with an unknown specific procurement method. The process, classified as an award, has reached completion, with the contract awarded to KOMPAN LIMITED, a supplier based in Milton Keynes. The project's execution was scheduled to begin on 3rd August 2026 and complete by 4th August 2026, boasting a gross contract value of £89,500.

This tender provides opportunities for businesses specialising in playground equipment, climbing apparatus, and playground landscaping work. Small to medium-sized enterprises that focus on innovative play area solutions and groundworks could find significant growth prospects by engaging in such public infrastructure projects. Given the nature of the contract, companies with expertise in public sector projects, especially those experienced in safety-compliant installations and enhancements, would be particularly well-positioned to compete and benefit from similar future opportunities. The collaboration with sub-central government authorities like the Wakefield Council can further amplify business credibility and portfolio diversity.
