## Summary

Castle Point Borough Council procured works to improve playground safety surfacing at J H Burrows Playground, Rectory Road, Hadleigh, Benfleet, Essex. The requirement covers removing the existing playground safety surfacing and installing new safety surfacing. It forms part of a wider programme for outdoor sports and play facilities across sites within the Council’s area, with requirements divided into separate lots for different types of work and skills. The procurement concerns recreation installation and playground equipment repair and maintenance, including the practical construction and surfacing work needed to make a public play area safer and suitable for use. The delivery site is J H Burrows Playground, SS7 2NQ, within Castle Point Borough Council’s area.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Castle Point Borough Council used a competitive selective procedure, described as a below-threshold award under a framework. KOMPAN LIMITED was selected for the safety surfacing works. The award value is £114,496.64 gross. The award date was 27 August 2026. The contract period is from 15 September 2026 to 15 December 2026. A future signature was scheduled for 14 September 2026. The wider requirement was divided into two lots, and tenderers could submit bids for either or both; the award information identifies the safety surfacing award against Lot 1. The award was recorded as active, while the tender itself was complete. The procurement was competitive, with separate lots reflecting different work types and skill sets.

This requirement demonstrates demand for contractors experienced in public playground and outdoor recreation works, particularly the safe removal of existing surfacing and installation of replacement safety surfacing. A credible competitor for similar work would need the practical workforce, equipment and site-management capability to carry out surfacing works in an operational public play environment, together with relevant experience of playground or recreation installations. The buyer’s stated approach separates work by type and skill set, so suppliers should be able to evidence the specific technical competence needed for safety surfacing rather than relying only on general construction experience. Experience delivering comparable works for local authorities or other public outdoor facilities would help demonstrate an understanding of public-site standards, coordination and safe completion.

## Notice

The purpose of this requirement is to appoint suitably experienced contractors to deliver outdoor sports and play facilities across sites within the Authority's area.

The purpose of Lot 2 is to provide for the removal of existing playground safety surfacing and the installation of new safety surfacing at J H Burrows Playground, Rectory Road, Hadleigh, Benfleet, Essex, SS7 2NQ.
