Summary of the contracting process

Sellafield Ltd procured decommissioning services for its CLESA Camp/Cap requirement, classified under CPV 98391000. The work is associated with the site at CA20 1PG in Cumbria, North West England. The requirement is presented as a framework call-off for waste-related work, but the published description gives no further breakdown of the tasks or outputs. Sellafield Ltd, based in Whitehaven, is the buying organisation. This is a specialist industrial decommissioning services requirement rather than a general waste collection or disposal contract; its relevance is strongest for suppliers experienced in decommissioning operations at complex industrial sites and able to work in the Sellafield area.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to AtkinsAltrad. The award was made on 19 October 2026, following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The contract runs from 19 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The awarded value is £165,955.72. The procurement estimate is also recorded as £165,955.72. The tender submission deadline was 2 October 2026 at 12:00. The opportunity was treated as a single requirement, with no lot split recorded. The stated suitability assessment excludes SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. No award-scoring criteria are included in the procurement details, so the basis used to compare framework suppliers cannot be described further.

For a supplier that did not win, this award shows that Sellafield buys defined, short-duration decommissioning services through call-offs from a framework, rather than necessarily running a standalone open competition for each requirement. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need a proven ability to deliver specialist decommissioning work at an operating nuclear site, with the systems, workforce and site readiness needed to meet Sellafield’s operational and safety requirements. AtkinsAltrad’s selection provides a relevant benchmark: competitors should be able to demonstrate comparable experience and delivery capacity for waste-related work at the CLESA Camp/Cap site. The buyer marked this requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs, indicating that suppliers should be prepared to meet the scale and organisational demands associated with the framework call-off route and site-based delivery.
