The successful Service Provider will be required to design play areas in line with the specification, supply the equipment, appoint and manage a suitably qualified installer and project manage, co-ordinate and oversee the installation of the new facilities. The tender should also outline a proactive repair and maintenance schedule for the first ten years. The designs will inform TTC and the local community on developing the play areas and as a consequence, will be subject to a high level of public consultation. • The preferred Service Provider will then be charged with: 1. Developing a play scheme design informed by public consultations, which should include the production of an Access Plan for the site. All designs must be compatible with the Equalities Act 2010. Further work with the community is likely to be necessary onsite to finalise the ultimate design; and, 2. Delivering the new play areas within Taunton Area site within the agreed budget.
