UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA), based in Cumbria, has completed a procurement process for a "Copyright Public Administration Licence" to support its operations. This contract, amounting to £75,118.92 gross, commenced on 1st April 2026 and will conclude on 31st March 2027. The procurement process utilised a direct method, conducted below the threshold without competition, and falls under the services category, specifically related to research and development consultancy. The tender involves acquiring licences from The Copyright Licensing Agency Limited, located in London, to ensure the legal use of copyrighted materials across various media forms. The legal basis for this contract is aligned with the UKPA 2023/54 legislation.

This tender represents a potential opportunity for large-scale service providers operating within the creative and information sectors, particularly those licensing copyrighted materials or offering related consultancy services. The absence of competition in this procurement highlights a niche opportunity for companies with specific expertise in managing copyright compliance and licensing, positioning them favourably for future engagements with public authorities like the NDA. Businesses adept in handling and distributing digital and print media content would find themselves well-suited to similar procurements and could leverage this experience to expand their service offerings to other governmental or quasi-governmental clients.
