UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Nuclear Waste Services Limited, a sub-central government public authority, has awarded a contract for the installation of a Wildlife Tower at the Drigg site in Cumbria. The contract for this project, titled "Wildlife Tower Installation," falls under the construction industry category and was procured through a limited method due to its below-threshold nature, ensuring limited competition. The tender has progressed from the award stage with Stobbarts Limited as the supplier. The contract was signed on 13th July 2026 and is scheduled to start on 17th August 2026, concluding by 30th October 2026. The agreement is valued at £136,093.56.

This project presents substantial opportunities for construction businesses interested in government contracts, particularly those capable of delivering on specific site installation projects. Firms experienced in constructing specialised infrastructure for public sector entities will find this type of contract advantageous. The collaboration with a large supplier like Stobbarts Limited indicates the scale and sophistication expected, providing a platform for businesses looking to expand their portfolio in specialised environmental constructions and public sector partnerships.
