Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by Sellafield Limited, a sub-central government public authority, involves the purchase of two endoscopes for inspecting Special Nuclear Materials. The awarding of the contract to Rexel UK Ltd, based in Whitehaven, was carried out under a direct procurement method, below threshold without competition, due to specific requirements. The stage of the procurement is at the contract award phase, having been signed on 9th February 2026 and concluding on 15th April 2026, with a gross value of £122,142.07. The industry falls under goods with a focus on medical equipment, specifically endoscopes, and the contract involves delivery within the United Kingdom in the UKD11 region.

This tender offers business growth opportunities for suppliers of specialised medical equipment, particularly those capable of delivering high-tech inspection tools like endoscopes. Large-scale businesses with experience in dealing with nuclear materials would be particularly well-suited to compete for similar opportunities. Rexel UK Ltd's successful completion of the contract underscores the potential for established suppliers to expand their market share by meeting specific procurement needs with efficiency and reliability.
