Sellafield Limited, located in Warrington, UK, has completed the procurement process for the "Effective Command" platform, which supports incident command delivery training. This contract falls within the services industry category and was procured using a direct method under the threshold, without competition. The tender process is now at the award stage, with K Lamb Associates Ltd based in Charlbury, UK, being the successful supplier.
