This procurement, categorised under "Christmas tree lights" in the services industry, has a contract value of £40,000 with a minimum threshold of £30,000. Interested contractors are required to submit their tender documents by the deadline of 22nd June 2020. The expected commencement date for the contract is 1st August 2020, concluding by 31st January 2024. This contract represents a direct procurement method via a single tender action, allowing for streamlined engagement with qualified suppliers. This opportunity offers significant potential for businesses specialising in event management, lighting installation, and maintenance services. Those with experience in similar festive installations, particularly in community settings, would be particularly well-suited to compete. The contract also anticipates responsibilities such as event coordination for the switching on of the lights and subsequent maintenance, creating avenues for companies to enhance local festive experiences and establish a long-term relationship with Quorn Parish Council. ## Notice Quorn Parish Council is keen to hear from suitably qualified contractors who are interested in installing its village centre Christmas lights over the next five years. The village centre display area is well established and the necessary infrastructure is in place with sufficient lights to complete the scheme. Further details in the form of installation specification and location plans are available as attachments to this notice. Prices should include the storage of the parish-owned lights when not in situ as well as testing prior to installation. The Parish Council would also expect the contractor to manage the switching on of the lights at the event to mark the beginning of the festive celebrations in early December and any maintenance issues until the lights are dismantled early in January. Tenders should be submitted for the attention of the Parish Clerk in a sealed envelope marked "Tender Documents - do not open" by Monday 22nd June 2020. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8b30ca9e-af8d-4613-8538-dce49eb173bf | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Direct | | Procurement method details | Single tender action (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 May 2020 | | Submission deadline | 22 Jun 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Jul 2020 - 31 Jan 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £40,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | QUORN PARISH COUNCIL | | Locality | QUORN, LOUGHBOROUGH | | Post town | Leicester | | Postcode | LE12 8BL | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF2 Leicestershire, Rutland and Northamptonshire | | ITL 3 | TLF22 Leicestershire CC and Rutland | | Local authority | Charnwood | | Electoral ward | Quorn & Mountsorrel Castle | | Westminster constituency | Loughborough | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 31 - Electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment and consumables; lighting ### Codes - 31522000 - Christmas tree lights ## Release History - 12 May 2020 at 13:07 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8b30ca9e-af8d-4613-8538-dce49eb173bf - 12 May 2020 at 13:05 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8b30ca9e-af8d-4613-8538-dce49eb173bf - 10 Mar 2020 at 09:25 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8b30ca9e-af8d-4613-8538-dce49eb173bf - 4 Mar 2020 at 18:16 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8b30ca9e-af8d-4613-8538-dce49eb173bf ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8b30ca9e-af8d-4613-8538-dce49eb173bf 12th May 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/4da6a5bd-e1bd-41d7-ba42-fbdbb434f6a4 Quorn Parish Council Christmas Lights Specification - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/b40deae3-12cf-4015-8df3-ec6458b9cb46 Quorn Parish Council Christmas Lights Location Plans ## Notice URLs - http://www.quorndon.com ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
