Summary of the contracting process

Sellafield Ltd, based at West Cumbria House in Workington, United Kingdom, has concluded the procurement process for a five-year maintenance contract of the Thermo Harshaw 8800 TLD reader. This process, under the services category, involves repair and maintenance services of measuring, testing, and checking apparatus. The procurement followed a direct method without competition, as it was below the threshold. Key dates include the contract start date on 23 April 2025 and an anticipated contract completion date of 1 April 2030. The awarded contract, valued at £84,576.87 gross, is now pending signature, with the next milestone scheduled for 17 April 2025.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in the maintenance and repair of technical and measuring equipment. The extensive support requirements—routine maintenance visits, unlimited callouts, telephone technical support, software support, and software upgrades—offer recurring revenue streams over five years. SMEs with strong technical capabilities and a focus on measurement and testing apparatus maintenance would be well-suited to compete for such contracts in future tenders with similar requirements.
