Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process managed by Sellafield Limited, a public authority operating under the UK sub-central government, focuses on the procurement of Zapp Shelters for collection and loading purposes to address waste management needs. Operating within the 'goods' industry category, specifically storage units (CPV code: 39173000), the process took place in the region of Warrington, UKD61, with suppliers expected to deliver to UKD11. The tender was conducted via a direct procurement method without competition, as it fell below the threshold, and it is now in the Award stage of the process. The contract for this procurement, valued at £133,224.48 gross, was signed on 20th January 2026, with an active period from 23rd January to 20th March 2026.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in manufacturing or supplying storage solutions, particularly those capable of meeting enterprise-level requirements. Large suppliers with a ready capacity for delivering robust solutions could benefit from a similar procurement method in future opportunities. Although this specific tender by Sellafield Limited has been awarded, similar institutions looking to enhance or maintain waste collection operations could provide an ongoing market. Businesses equipped with efficient production and logistical capabilities should anticipate opportunities in sub-central government procurement activities, which often have specific but non-competitive requirements, as seen in this example.
