Tender: Design, Supply & Installation of Inclusive Play Equipment – Glebe Park & Chapel Road, Ingoldmells

About

Ingoldmells Parish Council is seeking suitably qualified contractors to design, supply and install new play equipment and associated safety surfacing at two existing play areas in Ingoldmells, Lincolnshire, providing attractive, inclusive and accessible play opportunities for children from toddlers up to approximately 14 years of age. The procurement is split into two lots: Lot 1 – Glebe Park, Sea Lane (PE25 1NU) and Lot 2 – Chapel Road (PE25 1NA), each with an estimated maximum value of £60,000 excluding VAT; tenderers may submit for one or both lots and any award is subject to the tender outcome, availability of funding and the Council's formal approval. All equipment, surfacing and installation must comply with applicable legislation and British/European standards, including BS EN 1176 and BS EN 1177, and tenderers must provide full equipment and surfacing details (manufacturers, product references, materials, age ranges, dimensions, fall heights, safety zones and proposed surfacing). The Council prefers durable, low‑maintenance materials and requires meaningful accessible and inclusive play provision, manufacturers' certification, and an independent post-installation inspection (the Council intends to obtain a RoSPA Post-Installation Inspection Report) before formal handover. Tender submissions should include completed pricing schedules, proposed layouts and surfacing details, evidence of relevant experience and qualifications (including API membership or equivalent), insurance details, an indicative construction programme with earliest start date, warranties and aftercare, risk assessment/method statement information, assumptions/exclusions and references; tender prices must include all works and costs and be stated exclusive of VAT.
