Summary of the contracting process

The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority procured services for hosting, maintaining and reporting on the NDA group Jobs Portal. The requirement covers operation of the web portal and the associated reporting service, supporting the Authority’s recruitment and jobs information activities. The work is a web hosting and site-operation service rather than a construction, equipment supply or general consultancy contract. The buyer is the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority, a central government public authority based in Cumbria. The selected supplier, Winchester Consulting Ltd, is based in London and is classified as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The requirement was organised as a single service lot and relates specifically to operation of the NDA group Jobs Portal.

The procurement has been completed and awarded, with Winchester Consulting Ltd selected as the supplier. The contract was awarded on 4 September 2026 and signed on the same date. It runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. Its value is £89,920 excluding VAT, or £107,904 including VAT. The contract is active and the award remains active. The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The tender and its single lot reached complete status. The awarded service is classified under CPV 72415000, for worldwide web site operation and hosting services. The award covers the full Jobs Portal requirement rather than separate awards to multiple suppliers.

This award shows a defined requirement from the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority for specialist web hosting, portal maintenance and reporting. Suppliers considering future work for this buyer would need to demonstrate that they can operate and host a jobs portal, keep the service maintained, and produce the reporting required by the NDA group. The selected supplier is an SME, indicating that delivery of this requirement was suitable for a focused specialist business rather than only a large systems integrator. The commercial opportunity is concentrated on a single public-sector jobs portal and its supporting operational services. Relevant competitors would therefore be web-hosting and site-operation providers with practical experience managing a live portal and delivering dependable reporting alongside ongoing maintenance.
