Summary of the contracting process

Nuclear Restoration Services Limited procured works to install a replacement wireless fire detection system within the R2 ponds complex at Hinkley Point A. The requirement is fire-prevention installation work for a nuclear restoration site, focused on upgrading the building’s fire alarm arrangements. The buyer is Nuclear Restoration Services Limited, based at Risley in Warrington. Delivery is at Hinkley Point A, specifically the R2 ponds complex. The procurement covers one requirement rather than a wider multi-site programme or a range of separately described services. It is therefore most relevant to businesses that install, replace or upgrade wireless fire detection and fire alarm systems, particularly in specialist industrial or safety-critical buildings.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Nuclear Restoration Services Limited used a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. Mitie Security Ltd was selected for the fire-prevention installation works. The award was made on 21 July 2026 and the contract was signed on that date. The contract runs from 17 August 2026 to 31 January 2027. Its value is £115,350 excluding VAT, or £138,420 including VAT. The contract is active. The published outcome records one completed lot and one active award, covering the replacement wireless fire detection system at Hinkley Point A’s R2 ponds complex. No separate evaluation weighting or competitive tender process is recorded for this award.

This award is relevant evidence of demand for specialist fire alarm and wireless fire detection installation in the nuclear restoration sector. A supplier seeking to compete for similar work would need to demonstrate practical capability in replacing and upgrading fire detection systems, including installation work in a complex industrial environment. Experience of delivering safely and reliably within nuclear-related facilities would make a business more credible, as would the capacity to undertake a defined building upgrade rather than routine domestic or small commercial alarm work. The selected supplier is a large security services business, indicating that the requirement can sit within a broader security and fire-protection capability. Competitors should also understand the buyer’s use of below-threshold direct awards without competition.
