Summary of the contracting process

The UK Atomic Energy Authority was involved in a procurement process for a Fixed Crane Maintenance Service at its site located in Culham Campus, near Abingdon, Oxfordshire. The tender, classified under the CPV codes for repair and maintenance services, specifically targeted the repair and maintenance of cranes and machinery. The process followed an open procurement method and reached the award stage on 1st August 2025, with the tender having been completed by that date. The contract spans from 14th July 2025 to 13th July 2028 and could be extended for an additional year. The location for service is within the South East region of the United Kingdom, and the procurement value was established at £250,000 GBP.

This procurement presents lucrative opportunities for businesses specialising in maintenance services, especially those with expertise in cranes and heavy machinery. The potential for a contract extension signifies long-term growth prospects. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) were deemed suitable for this tender, although it was successfully awarded to Konecranes Demag UK Ltd, a large-scale supplier. Businesses capable of providing comprehensive maintenance services, particularly those focused on preventive maintenance and parts provision, would find such tenders advantageous for growth. The open procedure method employed allows for transparent competition, offering ample opportunity for proficient service providers.
