Summary of the contracting process

Sellafield Ltd, located at West Cumbria House in Workington, has completed the procurement process for the supply of spares for a failed process air compressor. The procurement falls under the 'goods' category and was conducted through a direct procurement method, below the threshold, allowing for procurement without competition. The tender was initially announced with a title "Spares for Failed Process Air Compressor," addressing the need for repair and replacement of various components within the compressor. The related contract is set to start on 14th May 2025 and conclude by 31st March 2026, following an award valued at approximately £146,741 GBP gross (£176,089.14 GBP including VAT). The procurement aligns with legislation under UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for suppliers specialising in air compressor spare parts and repair services. Companies with expertise in repairing high and low-pressure elements, replacing intercooler shells, and handling components contaminated with metal residues would find this contract particularly aligned with their capabilities. The procurement’s nature indicates a preference for agile businesses that can provide quick, high-quality service without the need for extensive competition processes. Suppliers already familiar with UK public procurement norms, and those with a strategic focus on the manufacturing sector involving compressors, should consider monitoring Sellafield Ltd’s future procurement activities for similar opportunities.
