Notice Information
Notice Title
JDR Management Support Framework.
Notice Description
UKAEA seeks to establish a framework of partner(s) who will be able to augment and strengthen UKAEA's resource pool of Project Delivery Professionals. This framework will enable partnered suppliers to support delivery of UKAEA's mission from wholly embedded positions within the UKAEA teams. Proposals are requested from potential suppliers (who may be a single organisation or consortia or joint venture) who wish to partner with UKAEA in delivering our mission. This requirement focusses on embedded on-site resource for BAU activities with open ended task-based requirements, UKAEA would seek to secure a minimum of 1 off and a maximum of 5 off suppliers per identified Lot within the framework. It is envisaged that, once established, the framework will operate by UKAEA providing the framework suppliers (by lot) an overview of a given requirement and its key constraints, and framework suppliers for that lot having the opportunity to then undertake a "mini competition" to fulfil the requirement. For smaller assignments, a provision is provided within the framework for direct contract award Lots are described in more detail in subsequent sections of this document. UKAEA aspires to this framework providing a mutually beneficial partnership which both aids delivery of the UKAEA mission and provides partners with a valuable insight into the rapidly expanding global fusion community. The framework will be established initially for a four-year period.
