Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement contract for the "Provision of Internal and Criticality Accident Dosimetry Service" was awarded by Nuclear Restoration Services Limited, a sub-central government authority based in Warrington, United Kingdom. The contract was signed on 16 April 2026 and commenced on 25 April 2026, running until 31 March 2028, with a possible extension until 31 March 2029. The contract involves dosimetry services at the Dounreay site in Scotland, falling under the radiation protection services category. This direct award was made to Nuvia due to the absence of competition for technical reasons. Key compliance requirements include adherence to Ionising Radiations Regulations and Radiation (Emergency Preparedness and Public Information) Regulations.

This tender represents a notable opportunity for large enterprises in the radiation protection industry, particularly those able to meet stringent technical demands without competition. Businesses experienced in dosimetry services can leverage this contract to strengthen their market presence in the nuclear restoration sector. Despite the direct award status due to technical exclusivity, organisations with similar capabilities may seek collaborative engagements or sub-contracting opportunities with Nuvia to gain exposure in this niche market and participate in the evolving landscape of nuclear site services.
