Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Westfield Parish Council is looking to procure Christmas lights through an open tender process, classified under the industry category of "Electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment, and consumables; lighting." The procurement is active and primarily targets small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). The contract will cover the installation, removal, and storage of Christmas lights for a period of four to five years, starting from the Christmas 2025 display. Bidders must submit their tenders by Friday, 28th March 2025, 5pm, with a decision expected by 24th April 2025. The successful vendor will be required to start the contract on 1st November 2025 and the contract will run until 31st January 2030. The estimated contract value is between £60,000 and £75,000, and the project will take place in Radstock, England, postal code BA3 3BX.

This tender offers significant opportunities for SMEs and VCSEs specialising in electrical machinery and lighting. The extended contract period of up to five years provides a stable and recurring revenue stream. Businesses with experience in holiday lighting, display installations, and storage logistics would be particularly well-suited for this contract. Given the extensive scope of installation and subsequent maintenance, companies that can offer comprehensive service packages including timely installation, reliable removal, and efficient storage operations would have a competitive edge. Engaging with this project could enhance reputation, expand market reach, and foster long-term business relationships with local government authorities.
