## Summary

The procurement process involves the Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) seeking to establish a framework agreement for street lighting electrical connections services for the period from 2020 to 2024. This open procedure tender, titled "GMCA Street Lighting Electrical Connections Framework Agreement 2020 - 2024," aims to split the contract into five lots, including two geographical lots managed by Electricity North West and Scottish Power, and three Independent Distribution Network Operator lots. The submission deadline for final tender applications was set for 3rd August 2020, while the contract period began on 1st October 2020 and may extend for up to four years. The services are intended for the North West region of the United Kingdom and require suppliers to be accredited under the National Electricity Registration Scheme (NERS).

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in street lighting and electrical services, particularly those with accreditation under the NERS scheme. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to compete, with potential to expand their operations through collaboration with other members of the GMCA and participating authorities. Businesses that can meet the criteria for the Independent Distribution Network Operator lots may find this an advantageous prospect for growth in the public sector, due to the ongoing demand for effective street lighting solutions in the region.
