Summary of the contracting process

Nuclear Restoration Services Limited commissioned repair and installation works at the Main Airlock Support, between D1127 and the Sphere. The work includes manufacturing and installing components as part of the repair, with structural steelwork identified as the principal work type. The requirement concerns a specific support structure rather than a general maintenance service. The buyer is Nuclear Restoration Services Limited, a public authority responsible for nuclear restoration. The procurement data does not identify a separate delivery town or site address for the works, so the named structure is the clearest location description available.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Nuclear Restoration Services Limited awarded the single lot directly to Gows Lybster Limited without competition under a below-threshold procedure. The award date is not provided. The contract was signed on 25 May 2026 and runs to 30 September 2026. Its stated gross value is £110,343. The purchase is for repairs and installation at the Main Airlock Support, including manufacture, with structural steelwork classified as the work. No evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements are set out in the published procurement data. The contract has not been identified as cancelled or terminated.

For a supplier assessing comparable future work for Nuclear Restoration Services Limited, this award indicates demand for targeted repair and installation on nuclear restoration infrastructure, including the manufacture and fitting of structural steelwork. A credible competitor would need practical capability in structural steel fabrication and installation, together with the ability to undertake repair work on an existing support structure. The narrow, site-specific scope suggests the value of experience coordinating manufacture with installation and working safely around operational or specialist infrastructure; however, no particular accreditation, security clearance or technical qualification is stated here. The buyer used a direct, non-competitive route for this award, so a future supplier would also need a route to establish its capability and suitability with the buyer before similar requirements arise.
