Summary of the contracting process

Sellafield Limited has recently completed a procurement process for the "Birchwood Shuttle Bus Service 2026" aimed at providing transportation services. The procurement involved a direct award, classified under services, for transport tickets and public road transport services, situated in the UKD61 region of the United Kingdom. The contract commenced on 1st January 2026 and is set to end on 31st December 2026, valued at £36,000. The awarded supplier is CBRE, a large-scale firm based in Liverpool. This procurement process, initiated without competition as it fell below the threshold for a competitive tender, was awarded on 12th December 2025, with details published on 23rd December 2025. Laura Henderson at Sellafield Limited is the point of contact for this contract.

This award presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in transport services, particularly those capable of managing shuttle services and logistics. While the awarded direct procurement process was closed without competition, businesses experienced in public transportation and logistical solutions similar to CBRE could position themselves for future opportunities of this nature. Companies looking to explore contracts with public authorities for transport-related services might find this an insightful example of current procurement needs and processes undertaken by organisations like Sellafield Limited in the UK market.
