Blackpool Council is inviting suitably qualified and experienced Suppliers to tender for inclusion on a Playground Procurement Framework for the design, supply, installation of playground equipment and associated works. Blackpool Council manage approximately 30 formal play areas across the town. These sites vary in size, age, condition, and functionality and are predominantly located in urban and coastal environments with exposure to high usage, anti-social behaviour, vandalism, wet weather, and salt-laden air. This framework will support the delivery of both small replacement works and large-scale playground refurbishments, ensuring consistency, quality, durability, and value for money as well as building close relationships with a smaller amount of suppliers who can meet our needs, over the contract term. The framework will cover, but is not limited to: • Supply and installation of playground sports and activity equipment • Playground surfacing • Fencing and gates • Design and layout of play spaces • Project management from contract award to completion • Aftercare, maintenance support, and warranties
This lot will cover small-scale works and individual equipment replacements with predefined requirements. Typical uses include: • Replacement equipment • Ward-funded schemes • Straightforward supply and installation of numerous items of equipment
Contract period: 30 September 2026 → 30 September 2028
This lot will be for projects requiring bespoke design solutions. For each competition, Suppliers will be required to provide itemised pricing and a rationale, technical specifications, scale CAD drawings and visual representations.
Contract period: 30 September 2026 → 30 September 2028
