Sellafield Ltd, located in Workington, United Kingdom, has completed a procurement process for the supply of 400 metres of radiation-tolerant cable, under the title "supply of MM480166 400m CABLE: RADIATION TOLERANT". This tender falls under the goods category with a specific emphasis on cables (CPV 44321000). The procurement was conducted through a direct method below the threshold, hence no competitive bidding was involved.
