Summary of the contracting process

The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority, a central government public authority based in Herdus House, Cumbria, recently completed a contracting process for a project titled "Radiography Assessment". This procurement pertains to the industry category of research and development services and related consultancy services. The contract was awarded to Urenco Nuclear Stewardship located in Chester, Cheshire. The process was categorised under the services procurement category with a direct procurement method, executed below threshold without competition. The award was made on 5th September 2025, and the contract is active from 8th September 2025 to 31st March 2026, with a total contract value of £81,896.4 GBP.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in radiography evaluation and assessment services. While the current award has been made directly to a substantial supplier, Urenco Nuclear Stewardship, similar future contracts could provide opportunities for businesses of different scales that can offer competitive expertise in handling NDA assets and samples. Enterprises that can demonstrate efficiency and innovation in the provision of tailored consultancy and research services within the nuclear sector would be well-suited to compete for such public procurement contracts, especially if they hold the capacity to manage projects within stringent regulatory and safety standards common in the nuclear decommissioning industry.
