## Summary

Burgess Hill Town Council is seeking tenders for its "Christmas lights 2020-2024" project, aimed at supplying, erecting, and dismantling the festive lighting for Burgess Hill. This procurement falls under the goods category, specifically related to electrical machinery and lighting, with a total budget of £50,000. The tender process is currently in the active stage and is classified as a direct procurement method through a single tender action below the threshold. Interested parties must submit their tender documents by 12 noon on Friday, 18 October 2019, with the contract expected to commence from 1 October 2020 and last for five years, covering the festive periods up to January 2025.

This opportunity presents significant growth potential for businesses involved in festive lighting and related services, particularly those with experience in high-impact displays. Companies that hold Highway Electrical Registration Scheme (HERS) accreditation or have partnerships with accredited suppliers would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. As the project requires contractors to potentially adapt to changes due to town centre redevelopment, businesses that can demonstrate flexibility and an understanding of local authority regulations will be advantageous in securing this tender.
