description

The work is for the design, supply and installation of appropriate groundworks, materials, equipment and associated works relevant to the site which should comply to the appropriate British or European Standards, mainly BS EN 1177 and BS EN 1176. If there is evidence that the work does not confirm to the required standard and as a result the materials or workmanship are substandard, unsafe or require replacement or repair, this will be completed at the cost of the Contractor.

The Town Council would like to install a minimum of three different pieces of accessible play equipment into Cambridge Field and/or Borough Farm Play Park. The equipment preferences would be selected from the list below:

i)1 x small trampoline;
ii)1 x inclusive / wheelchair roundabout
iii)1 x inclusive / wheelchair user park swing,
iv)Sensory play equipment.

Detailed quotations must be provided for each individual item of accessible play equipment proposed. Each item should be suitable for use by both able-bodied users and individuals with additional physical, sensory, or cognitive needs. Descriptions should include:

Manufacturer and model details
Intended age range
Inclusive features and accessibility considerations
Materials used and expected durability/lifespan
Any relevant safety certifications or compliance standards

Visual Representation

To aid the council in visualising the equipment in context, tenderers must include high-quality images of each proposed piece of equipment installed in real-world settings. Photographs from previous installations are preferred. Please do not rely solely on renderings or graphic representations.

  1. Pricing and Associated Costs

Quotations must provide a full breakdown of costs for:

Each piece of play equipment
Installation of each piece, including any groundwork or preparatory work
Landscaping adjustments needed to support installation
Safety surfacing (e.g., rubber matting, mulch) required for compliance
Any other relevant or optional costs clearly labelled

All prices should be VAT exclusive, delivery, and any other surcharges, and should be clearly itemised to distinguish between supply and installation costs.

  1. Additional Path Installation

In addition to the supply and installation of accessible play equipment, the Town Council invites optional quotations for the construction of an accessible pathway in Cambridge Field. This path should connect the gate at the corner of Wellington Street and Kempton Terrace to the flat area at the bottom of the field, as shown in yellow on the Photo of Cambridge Field from above. Quotations should include:

Proposed path design, surface materials, and dimensions
Method of installation and any ground preparation
Drainage considerations
Accessibility compliance (e.g., slope, surface texture, width)
Associated costs, itemised as above.
4.Budget
4.1The council currently has an allocated budget of £30,000 for the supply and installation of all the play equipment, however it will consider a 15% increase on this, subject to the right proposals. The council has not allocated a budget for the supply and installation of the additional path
4.2The quotation for 3.5 above will assist the council with future planning and will not influence the outcome of this tender.
4.3The council will consider the constraints for all elements of the tender and will look at affordability when reviewing submissions.
