Purpose:

To seek approval for awarding of the 12 month extension option within the contract for the Erection, Maintenance and Dismantling of The Festive Illumination Displays for Oldham Council and Rochdale Borough Council.

Decision:

RESOLVED - That:
Option 1 (below) be approved to award the optional 1-year extension to Christmas Plus Limited who have provided a high quality service and shown a real commitment to both Oldham and Rochdale Councils community and environment.

Reasons for the decision:

Option 1 - To award the optional 1-year extension to Christmas Plus Limited who have provided a high quality service and shown a real commitment to both Oldham and Rochdale Councils community and environment.
Option 2 - Not to award the optional 1-year extension to Christmas Plus Limited. Due to the need of the service and the value of the contract a new tender exercise would be required this would increase the timescales in appointing a new supplier and could impact on the installation of the Festive displays in both Oldham and Rochdale.

Alternative options considered:

Option 2
