UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sellafield Limited, a public authority operating as part of the sub-central government in the UK, is initiating a public procurement process for an "Infrastructure Client" project. The focus is on conventional site infrastructure projects with an emphasis on early lifecycle stage analysis to inform decision-making at the Pre-Outline Business Case (Pre OBC) stage. The procurement is currently at the Planning stage, with a significant budget of £40,000,000. This project, falling within the services category, is planned to commence on 1st April 2026 and conclude on 1st April 2030. Potential bidders can anticipate further updates, with a future notice date set for 1st December 2025. The work will be delivered across the United Kingdom, and the project involves design support services.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses, particularly those experienced in infrastructure design and analysis. Given the project's selection process is favourable to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as noted in the project's suitability criteria, SME service providers focused on design support can strategically position themselves to compete. By participating in this procurement, businesses can establish significant collaborations, enhance their portfolio in site infrastructure, and expand their operations within the United Kingdom's public sector market. The project's robust financial backing and long-term timeline further enhance its attractiveness for capable firms looking to drive business growth.
