Description
Boddington Parish Council ('BPC') recently completed a Parish Survey which informed the Parish Plan that was adopted in January 2018. Parishioners have clearly expressed a desire to replace the existing play equipment with improved play equipment and sports facilities to be located close to the Village Hall on the Charles Cowper Playing Field Warwick Road, Upper Boddington NN11 6DH. The whole site is reasonably level having once been the village cricket ground and provides wheelchair access, parking and access to the Village Hall facilities (when open).
BPC is seeking a suitably experienced and qualified company to design and build a new community playground. The supplier will need to have proven and demonstrated experience in similar projects and the wide ranging skill base to achieve the various elements of the contract which include client and user group liaison, design, construction and installation of a community playground, health & safety management and defect diagnosis and rectification. The supplier must be able to demonstrate an excellent Health and Safety record, accordingly suppliers that cannot demonstrate an excellent record, free from enforcement action, will not be considered. The supplier must also demonstrate that all practicable steps are being taken to allow equal access and equal treatment in employment and service delivery, as appropriate to the nature of the contract.
BPC has applied for grant funding of £75,000 for this project and if successful delivery and installation is to take place during the summer of 2018. In addition BPC may be able to supplement the grant to a very limited extent. If the grant application is unsuccessful the project will be delayed until alternative funding is found and the project may need to be delivered in phases as funds become available. A single supplier is preferred.
The Community playground is to have accessibility at the heart of its design and should offer opportunities for all age groups. The design should include a zip-wire, a roundabout, a slide, swings, climbing equipment, tree house and trampoline. The final design brief will be agreed with the successful supplier.
