Summary of the contracting process

Wiltshire Council commissioned radiological remediation services from Aurora Health Physics Services Limited. The requirement concerns the collection of radioactive waste, forming part of a specialist remediation service. Delivery is in Wiltshire, within the United Kingdom. This is a public-sector environmental and health-physics requirement rather than general waste collection: relevant work involves handling radioactive materials and carrying out remediation activities safely and appropriately. The council is the buying organisation, while Aurora Health Physics Services Limited is the selected specialist supplier. Businesses operating in radioactive-waste management, radiological remediation or health-physics services would be the closest commercial comparators for this requirement. The procurement is a single service requirement, with no separate operational scope identified beyond the radiological remediation and radioactive-waste collection described.

The procurement is complete and was awarded directly to Aurora Health Physics Services Limited on 15 July 2026. It was a below-threshold direct award without competition. The contract was signed on 20 July 2026 and runs from 30 July 2026 to 20 August 2026. Its value is £171,582, with a gross value of £205,898.40. The award and contract are both recorded as active. Wiltshire Council used one completed lot for the requirement. This outcome shows a short, defined service engagement procured through a non-competitive route, rather than an open tender evaluated through competing bids. The selected supplier is Aurora Health Physics Services Limited, a large organisation specialising in health-physics services.

For a supplier assessing future work from Wiltshire Council, this procurement demonstrates demand for a tightly scoped radiological remediation service involving radioactive-waste collection. A credible competitor would need specialist health-physics capability, practical experience of radiological remediation and the operational competence to collect and manage radioactive waste safely. The requirement is suited to established providers able to take responsibility for technically sensitive work in a public-sector setting, rather than general waste contractors without radioactive-materials expertise. Aurora Health Physics Services Limited’s selection identifies the type of specialist supplier that met the council’s need on this occasion. Businesses with comparable technical staff, relevant procedures, compliant waste-handling operations and evidence of delivering similar radiological services would be best placed to compete if a comparable requirement returns.
