Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sellafield Ltd is initiating a public procurement process focused on Very Low Active (VLA) Analysis services in the North West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement, identified under the title "PIN (2) Market Engagement Event 9th January 2025 - VLA Analysis," is presently in the planning stage. The key engagement event is scheduled to take place virtually via Microsoft Teams on 9th January 2025, with an engagement end date set for 2nd April 2025. The procurement falls under the industry categories of Analysis services (CPV 71620000) and Laboratory services (CPV 71900000), with a substantial contract value of £103,000,000. Relevant parties must register through the Atamis system under Project C22676 to participate and access further documentation.

This procurement initiative presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in analysis and laboratory services, particularly those with capabilities to manage VLA Analysis. Companies that register and actively engage in the upcoming market engagement event can gain insights into the procurement requirements and position themselves strategically. Although targeting larger enterprises (as SMEs and VCSEs are not specifically suited), businesses can anticipate growth through potential collaboration and the substantial contract opportunity afforded by Sellafield Ltd, a leading organisation in the region.
