UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Sellafield Limited involves the award of a contract for the "VOR Application as part of the Petersons transfer to SL" project. As a public authority in the sub-central government sector located in Warrington, UK, Sellafield Limited is handling this contract using a direct award procurement method due to intellectual property and technical reasons that require a sole supplier. The contract is in the services industry category, specifically focused on software implementation services, with a total value of £396,000 gross. The contract period is set from 21 November 2025 to 31 May 2028. The tender is now complete, as of 7 November 2025, with the next milestone being the signature scheduled for 20 November 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the software services industry, particularly those specialising in implementation services or with unique intellectual property capabilities that match the requirements specified by Sellafield Limited. The direct award approach suggests that a limited number of suppliers can meet the tender's needs, indicating a niche market. Businesses with expertise in meeting exclusive rights or technical demands, especially those with innovative software solutions embedded within existing systems, would be well-positioned to pursue similar contracts in the future.
