Summary of the contracting process

The Nuclear Waste Services is undertaking an Integrated Waste Management Specialist Nuclear Services Framework (IWM24) as part of a multi-supplier, multi-lot initiative to support their nuclear waste management programme. The framework is classified under environmental engineering consultancy services with a total value of £26,000,000. This open procurement process follows an open procedure (above threshold) and has progressed to the award stage. The contract period is set to begin on 30th September 2025 and continue until 30th September 2029. Suppliers are expected to deliver services across various locations including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, and globally.

This contract opens significant business opportunities, especially for large-scale enterprises with expertise in environmental engineering and consultancy services related to nuclear waste management. Given the substantial contract value and multi-year engagement, companies well-versed in providing specialised or integrated waste management solutions stand to benefit greatly from this framework. The tender caters predominantly to larger firms, as indicated by the preference for non-SME and non-VCSE suppliers, positioning it as a crucial growth avenue for established entities in the relevant industry sector. Companies like Cyclife UK, Galson Sciences Limited, and Ove Arup and Partners Limited have already capitalized on similar opportunities through the awarded contract.
