The procurement process is at the tender amendment stage and covers the installation, maintenance, and removal of lighting displays for various events and public holidays throughout the year in Saltash, England. This opportunity involves a single tender action method, under the direct procurement path for miscellaneous services in the specified location with the postal code PL12 6JX. Key dates include a submission deadline of 25 June 2025 by 5pm, with the contract period set to begin on 18 July 2025. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in light display design and maintenance, particularly those experienced in combining modern and traditional designs with an environmentally friendly focus. Suitable candidates may include SMEs capable of delivering energy-efficient solutions, such as LED or solar-powered lighting, which align with the council's objectives for sustainability across events like Christmas, Easter, and various town festivities. Businesses with the capability to provide innovative, Cornish-themed displays that enhance public spaces such as Fore Street, Victoria Gardens, and the Waterside could greatly benefit from this contract. ## Notice Saltash Town Council has traditionally managed the organisation of Christmas lights in-house, with contractors hired to install, manage, and maintain them in preparation for the festive season. Last year, the Town Council invested in new festoon lighting. However, the other Town Council owned decorations, including cross motifs and lamp post motifs, reached the end of their lifespan and were recycled earlier this year. Saltash Town Council ("the Town Council") has taken this opportunity to invest in lighting not just for Christmas but for various events throughout the year. The Town Council is now seeking tenders from suitably qualified and experienced contractors to provide not only a Christmas Lighting Display but also a lighting display that can be used for various events and public holidays such as Easter, Valentine's Day, Remembrance, and any other Town-organised / national events. The scope of work involves design, supply, installation, maintenance, removal and storage (if required) of lights and decorations. The Town Council is looking for new designs and ideas, mixing modern with traditional, catering to all ages, with a Cornish theme. The Town Council is interested in an environmentally friendly approach to displays, e.g. energy efficient LED's, solar options, etc. for a contractual period of three-years. Tenderers are invited to use their experience and their product ranges and design knowledge to present a scheme for Saltash that enhances Fore Street, inclusive of Victoria Gardens to the Waterside - presentation to be included in the tender submission. The scheme should create a focal point on Fore Street, with versatile/projection lighting that can be utilised all year-round for various Town Events and Public Holidays, including but not limited to, May Fair, Regatta, Easter, and Valentine's Day. The Town Council wishes to have a bright and cheerful light display during the festive season that complements the town's high street, Victoria Gardens and the Waterside. (Please refer to Appendix A for further information on locations inclusive of the Town Council assets and responsibilities and EICR Certification).
