The procurement involves services in the field of apparatus for measuring radiation and related areas. The tender is currently in the planning stage, with a deadline for tender submission set for 31st January 2023. The contract period is scheduled to start on 3rd March 2023 and end on 1st September 2023, providing an opportunity for organisations interested in contributing to nuclear decommissioning projects. This tender by the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority offers business growth opportunities for firms specialising in radiation measurement apparatus, contamination monitoring devices, architectural services, and quantity surveying services. Small and medium-sized enterprises are particularly suited for participation. The tender presents a chance to be involved in the decommissioning and repurposing project of the JET estate, addressing radiation hazards, beryllium contamination, and neutron activation. Interested businesses can explore the potential offered by this open procedure procurement method with a focus on services in radiation protection and architectural services for nuclear projects. ## Notice The JET Decommissioning and Repurposing (JDR) Programme is seeking an organisation to develop a Characterisation Plan (CP) for the JET estate to underpin strategic planning of decommissioning activities. This document summarises the expected scope and boundaries of the CP activity, key deliverables, and relevant information. The JET estate consists of a large number of buildings which are used to support the operation of the JET reactor. Many of the facilities in the JET estate are non-radiological and non-beryllium contaminated and simply provide services such as power, heat, and office space for the JET programme. There are known areas of beryllium contamination, heightened neutron activation, and airborne tritium concentration which are key areas of interest in terms of decommissioning. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e126cf02-815a-4f92-9b0e-91bc4a5dd4b0 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 20 Dec 2022 | | Submission deadline | 31 Jan 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 3 Mar 2023 - 1 Sep 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | UNITED KINGDOM ATOMIC ENERGY AUTHORITY | | Locality | ABINGDON | | Post town | Oxford | | Postcode | OX14 3DB | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ1 Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire | | ITL 3 | TLJ14 Oxfordshire CC | | Local authority | South Oxfordshire | | Electoral ward | Sandford & the Wittenhams | | Westminster constituency | Didcot and Wantage | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 35 - Security, fire-fighting, police and defence equipment - 38 - Laboratory, optical and precision equipments (excl. glasses) - 42 - Industrial machinery - 45 - Construction work - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 35113200 - Nuclear, biological, chemical and radiological protection equipment - 38341000 - Apparatus for measuring radiation - 38341200 - Radiation dosimeters - 38341500 - Contamination-monitoring devices - 38341600 - Radiation monitors - 38940000 - Nuclear evaluation instruments - 42151000 - Nuclear reactors - 45251110 - Nuclear-power station construction work - 45251111 - Construction work for nuclear reactors - 71251000 - Architectural and building-surveying services - 71315300 - Building surveying services - 71322100 - Quantity surveying services for civil engineering works - 71324000 - Quantity surveying services - 72313000 - Data capture services - 73111000 - Research laboratory services - 79311200 - Survey conduction services - 90521000 - Radioactive waste treatment services - 90721600 - Radiation protection services ## Release History - 20 Dec 2022 at 16:08 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e126cf02-815a-4f92-9b0e-91bc4a5dd4b0 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e126cf02-815a-4f92-9b0e-91bc4a5dd4b0 20th December 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=54346&B=UKAEA Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/72814 User / Company ## Notice URLs - http://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/uk-atomic-energy-authority ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
