Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for this project, led by Nuclear Waste Services Limited, involves the planned development of a Technical Toolkits Framework focusing on IT services, including consulting, software development, internet, and support. The buying organisation, a public authority within the sub-central government sector, is located in Calderbridge, Seascale, United Kingdom. The procurement stage is currently in the planning phase, with the tender titled "Technical Toolkits Framework". The expected contract period spans from 19 July 2027 to 18 July 2031, with the option for renewal. The framework agreement is planned to be published by 1 January 2027, and it is categorized under services, specifically within the IT industry. The procurement's value is set at GBP 4,500,000, with a total gross amount of GBP 5,400,000.

This tender presents significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for IT service providers such as consultancies and software development firms. Businesses with capabilities in safety case management systems, inventory toolkits, and nuclear safety are especially well-suited to compete for this framework. The procurement is open to small and medium enterprises (SMEs), enhancing the competitive landscape and promoting diversity in available services. With the gross contract value being substantial, this procurement could significantly contribute to the business growth of successful bidders, offering a stable and extended workload until at least 2031, with the potential for further extensions. Prospective bidders may leverage this opportunity to establish long-term relationships within the nuclear waste management sector, aligning with both public sector needs and future technological requirements.
