UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sellafield Limited is planning a procurement process for ICT Hosted Infrastructure Management & Application Management Services, with the call for competition scheduled to start in late May 2026. The procurement is under the Technology Services 4 (TS4) Framework Agreement (RM6190), consolidating the previously separate two-lot structure into a single contract covering both applications and infrastructure management. This amendment aims to streamline delivery and reduce duplication. The procurement process falls under the industry category of information technology services and involves delivery in regions UKD61 and UKD11 within the United Kingdom. The anticipated duration of the contract is seven years, starting on 19 April 2027 and ending on 18 April 2034, with a revised estimated contract value of £76.1 million. The procurement is currently at the planning stage with future notice expected by 22 May 2026.

Business growth opportunities arise from this procurement process, particularly for SMEs due to the competitive flexible procedure and suitability criteria for small and medium enterprises. Companies specialising in ICT infrastructure management and application management could significantly benefit, especially those already appointed to TS4 Lot 4 and Lot 5. The streamlined single contract presents new revenue opportunities by managing substantial service delivery across a extended contract period. Businesses with expertise in information technology services have the chance to establish long-term partnerships with Sellafield Limited, a public authority under the sub-central government classification. This tender can enable firms to expand their customer base and develop long-term service provisions within a major UK government framework.
