Summary of the contracting process

The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority has awarded a contract for a Wire Electrical Discharge Machining Machine, specifically the SODI-TECH ALC600G CNC Wire-cut EDM machine, to replace an ageing EDM machine. Classified under the CPV code 42638000 for metal-working machining centres, this procurement falls within the goods category. The procurement was carried out using a limited method, resulting in the award of the contract without prior publication of a contract notice. The contract period begins on 5th February 2025 and ends on 6th February 2025, with delivery to the South East region of the United Kingdom. The total contract value is GBP 147,450.

This tender offers an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in the supply of advanced machining centres, particularly those catering to the niche market of numerically-controlled machines for metalwork. SMEs involved in high-precision machining equipment are well-suited to compete in similar future contracts, given the stringent requirements for replacement and maintenance of specialized machinery in key governmental and scientific establishments like the UK Atomic Energy Authority. Engaging in such contracts can significantly enhance a company's portfolio and market presence.
