Summary of the contracting process

The UK Atomic Energy Authority has procured hard facilities management services for its Culham campus in Oxfordshire. The work covers planned, preventative, corrective and reactive maintenance across the campus’s buildings and assets. Culham is the Authority’s largest campus, a 24-hour operational site occupied by 40 commercial tenant organisations. The contract is divided into hard facilities management, an allowance for asset reviews, and low-value projects and billable works. The requirement combines ongoing maintenance of a substantial, multi-tenant operational estate with responsive repairs and smaller works. Its primary service category is building and facilities management (CPV 79993000), supported by engineering, construction-related and monitoring services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Integral UK Limited following a competitive exercise through the Government Commercial Agency’s RM6232 framework, Lot 2b for hard facilities management. The award date was 23 September 2026. The stated potential contract value is approximately £32 million excluding VAT over seven years, with a five-year initial term and a two-year extension option. The contract period is 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2032; the stated period reflects the initial term. The framework lot covers contracts valued at £1.5 million to £10 million per annum and includes 27 hard facilities management suppliers. The recorded tender deadline was 26 January 2026. The award reflects the outcome of that competitive framework exercise.

For suppliers preparing to compete for a comparable requirement from the UK Atomic Energy Authority, this award demonstrates demand for integrated hard facilities management across a large, multi-tenant, continuously operating campus. A credible competitor would need to deliver planned and preventative maintenance alongside corrective and reactive response, while also managing asset-review risk allowances and low-value projects or billable works. The operational setting points to the need for capacity to maintain a broad estate without disrupting site operations, and to coordinate service delivery across numerous tenant organisations. The Authority used a government commercial framework restricted to hard facilities management suppliers for this procurement, so relevant framework access and proven delivery of this combination of maintenance and responsive works would strengthen a supplier’s position.
