## Summary

The Manchester City Council has awarded a contract for the TC1166 Manchester Christmas Chalets project, involving building installation work and repair services. The contract, valued at GBP 176,960, was awarded to cater-trailer ltd. The procurement method used was an open procedure, with tender submission deadline on 27th July 2023. The contract period is set to begin on 31st October 2023 and end on 30th October 2027. The project aims to engage businesses to facilitate the setup, maintenance, and removal of chalets at various sites within Manchester.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses involved in building installation work and repair services to compete for the contract to manage Manchester Christmas Chalets. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and other businesses focused on community, social, and personal services are well-suited to participate in this opportunity. The project's requirement includes not only chalet maintenance but also additional services such as building compounds and ramp installations, potentially creating a diverse range of opportunities for interested businesses to contribute to the festive market setup and operation in Manchester.

## Notice

Manchester Specialist Markets undertake the task of setting up and operating the annual Manchester Christmas Markets, across ten different sites within the city centre, each year. The market is made up of a mixture of Manchester Markets owned chalets, and trader owned chalets / trailers. Part of the requirement to manage the whole process is to engage various companies under contract to facilitate the set up (known as bump-in), maintenance during the course of the market, and removal (known as bump-out) of the chalets in specific locations. What is required for the 2023 Christmas Market (and beyond) is a company who can bump-in, bump-out and maintain the chalets that are owned by Manchester Markets, for various sites. This may also include peripheral requirements such as building compounds, a ramp for the mobiloo and anything else that may be required at short notice. Additional information: The Council is using the e-business portal known as the Chest. Applicants will need to register their details at the following link www.the-chest.org.uk. Applicants will need to electronically submit their completed tender documents, including standard selection questionnaire, via the on-line portal by 2pm on 27th July 2023
