Inclusivity and Imagination: Inclusivity and imagination are important elements of this project. Contractors are encouraged to consider items of play equipment that are inclusive for all and promote imagination, inquisitiveness and curiosity in the children. Consideration of colours, materials, range of equipment, ease and assistance for access are features the Council is seeking to include. Presentation: The Council requires the Contractors proposals to be set out on a scaled drawing showing the layout of each item of equipment, entrances and connecting paths. The layout plans should itemise each item of equipment on an accompanying 'key'. The Contractor may submit 3D visual drawings showing the play area layout on the site. Warranties and Guarantees: The Council is seeking a play area which is durable, vandal resistant where possible and provides quality and reliability going forward.
