Summary of the contracting process

Nuclear Restoration Services Ltd procured personnel supply and project-controls support for its nuclear restoration programme. The requirement was for 11 PMO Project Controls Practitioners: five Cost Engineers and six Project Planners. The service covers recruitment, deployment, training and development to strengthen project-controls capability across Hunterston, Dungeness, Sizewell, Winfrith and Trawsfynydd. This is a specialist professional services requirement, classified under CPV 79620000 for supplying personnel, including temporary staff. Work is delivered across the United Kingdom at the named nuclear sites, with the buyer based in Warrington. The opportunity is relevant to workforce solutions providers, recruitment organisations and professional services businesses able to source and support project-controls practitioners for nuclear infrastructure environments.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 15 September 2026 to Alexander Mann Solutions Limited. It was run as a selective call-off from a framework agreement, for services with an awarded value of £2,114,860. The contract period runs from 16 November 2026 to 16 November 2028. The requirement was structured around a combined team of five Cost Engineers and six Project Planners supporting 11 PMO practitioner positions. The buyer assessed the requirement through the framework call-off route rather than an open tender. The tender submission deadline was 14 September 2026 at 12:00. The award is active, and the selected supplier is responsible for providing the practitioner workforce and associated recruitment, deployment, training and development support.

This award shows that Nuclear Restoration Services Ltd uses a framework route to obtain a sizeable, multi-site project-controls workforce for nuclear restoration work. A credible future competitor would need established recruitment and workforce deployment capability, access to experienced Cost Engineers and Project Planners, and the operational capacity to place 11 practitioners across several UK nuclear sites. The requirement also favours suppliers able to manage onboarding, training and professional development rather than simply introduce candidates. Relevant businesses are likely to be larger workforce solutions, recruitment or professional services providers, as the procurement was recorded as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Experience coordinating dispersed technical teams would strengthen a supplier’s position when this buyer next requires comparable support.
