Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involved with the National Nuclear Laboratory, based in Warrington, UK, pertains to the procurement of a replacement chiller for the NNL Central Laboratory located on the Sellafield Nuclear Site in West Cumbria. The procurement falls under the industry category of cooling and ventilation equipment, and the procurement method used was an open procedure. The most recent stage of this process is the award stage, with the contract having been awarded on 27th May 2025 to Johnson Controls Building Efficiency UK Limited for a total value of GBP 600,000. The procurement was part of a tender initially activated in August 2023, with the tender period concluding on 15th September 2023.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in the supply and installation of HVAC systems and related equipment, aiming for growth within the nuclear sector. The contract was awarded based on both technical merit and pricing, making it suitable for companies that excel in providing high-quality, innovative cooling solutions for complex environments, such as nuclear laboratories. The involvement of a known entity like Johnson Controls illustrates the competitive nature of such tenders, and businesses of a similar scale and capability would be well-placed to compete in future opportunities with the National Nuclear Laboratory or other public bodies looking for competent suppliers in this field. Small to medium enterprises or those from the EU did not submit bids, suggesting a niche yet scalable opportunity for larger organisations specialising in this domain.
