## Summary

Swanage Town Council is currently inviting tenders for the "Swanage Town Council Festive Lights Tender," aimed at establishing a new festive lighting scheme in Swanage, South West England. This project is classified under the category of electrical machinery and lighting, with a total estimated value of £60,000, of which a minimum of £15,000 is guaranteed. The procurement process is open and follows an open procedure below threshold, with the tender period concluding on 23rd August 2019. The project is scheduled to commence from 23rd November 2019 and is expected to continue until 31st October 2022.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in the supply and installation of outdoor lighting equipment, particularly those that are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Companies able to offer innovative lighting designs or solutions can particularly benefit from this contract. With the phased rollout of the festive lights, businesses can not only secure immediate contracts but also potentially position themselves for future phases in subsequent years, fostering long-term growth within the community and enhancing their portfolio of work.

## Notice

Swanage Town Council is looking to have a new festive lighting scheme in place from late November 2019. It is planned to roll this out in a phased approach. The first stage will be lining the main commercial street, Station Road, from the station to the Mowlem Theatre on the seafront. A further phase or phases will be implemented during 2020 and following years.
