## Summary

High Peak Borough Council commissioned a refurbishment of the Cottage Lane play area. The requirement concerns outdoor play equipment and its renewal as part of the play area project. The buying organisation is High Peak Borough Council, based in Buxton. The published delivery location is identified as the East Midlands, England; no town or more precise site location is stated. This is a goods procurement, rather than a separately described construction or maintenance service. The supplied description identifies refurbishment as the purpose but does not break down the equipment, quantities or individual works. The selected supplier was Kompan Limited, a playground equipment company, reflecting demand for the supply of outdoor play equipment for a council play area.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Kompan Limited. High Peak Borough Council used a direct award below the procurement threshold, without competition. One lot was awarded. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026 and runs from 1 October to 30 November 2026. Its value is £49,437 excluding VAT (£59,324 including VAT). The award is active and the contract is active. The available procurement information does not state separate evaluation criteria; this was a non-competitive award rather than a scored competition. The stated scope is refurbishment of the Cottage Lane play area, with the awarded item classified as outdoor sports equipment. No award cancellation or contract termination is recorded.

For suppliers considering similar council play-area requirements, this award shows demand for outdoor play equipment as part of a focused refurbishment project. Kompan Limited was selected, indicating that a credible competitor would need to demonstrate it can supply suitable play equipment for a public outdoor setting and support a defined site refurbishment. The scale is that of a single play-area project, rather than a multi-site programme. This procurement was placed by direct award without competition, so it does not establish a competitive evaluation model or show that price, particular accreditations, installation capability or specified experience were decisive. Suppliers should base their assessment of fit on the council’s actual equipment and project requirements when these are available, and be able to deliver a coherent equipment supply for a local authority play area.
