UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sellafield Limited procured disposable plastic rings for use with extremity dosimeters. The requirement covered 8,000 orange rings and 8,000 yellow rings, making this a specialist supply of radiation-dosimetry accessories rather than a dosimetry monitoring service. Delivery was to the Warrington area in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is Sellafield Limited, a public authority responsible for its own procurement needs. The awarded goods were classified under radiation dosimeters. The requirement was arranged as a single package and supports the use of extremity dosimeters, which are worn to monitor radiation exposure to the hands and other extremities. This procurement is therefore most relevant to manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers of dosimetry equipment, radiation-protection consumables and related disposable components.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Sellafield Limited used a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. Phoenix Dosimetry Ltd (HTSL Group) was selected as supplier for the single lot. The contract was signed on 18 September 2026 and runs from 21 September 2026 to 31 December 2026. Its value is £39,620 excluding VAT, or £47,184 including VAT. The contract is active. The requirement was evaluated through a non-competitive direct award route rather than an open tender, and the published information records no competitive award assessment. The outcome shows a short-duration purchase of a defined quantity of specialist consumables, with the supplier responsible for providing both the orange and yellow disposable plastic rings for Sellafield’s extremity-dosimetry use.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates an identifiable requirement for high-volume disposable accessories used with extremity dosimeters at Sellafield. A credible future competitor would need to supply both orange and yellow plastic rings in the required quantities, maintain reliable production or distribution capacity, and provide components suitable for use with radiation-monitoring equipment. Specialist knowledge of dosimetry and radiation-protection products would help demonstrate that the rings are fit for their intended operational use. Suppliers already serving nuclear, radiological, occupational-health or industrial safety customers may be well placed to understand the purchasing environment and quality expectations. The direct-award route also indicates the value of established product fit, trusted supply arrangements and the ability to meet a tightly defined consumables requirement.
