## Summary

The CTM Portal for the NDA Shared Services Alliance is initiating a tender for the project titled "Active Effluent Pumping Station at SGHWR and DRAGON at Winfrith Site". This procurement falls within the industry category of works, specifically focusing on the construction of pumping stations, and is located in the United Kingdom, with delivery addresses including postal locations such as DT2 8WG. The procurement method is an open procedure, with a deadline for submission on 9th May 2022. The total contract value is estimated at £160,000, with a minimum threshold set at £100,000, and the contract period is expected to run from 13th June 2022 to 23rd December 2022. This project involves the design, installation, testing, and commissioning of pumping systems, necessitating compliance with national standards due to the radioactive context of the work involved.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in environmental engineering, construction, and pumping systems. Companies with experience in designing and installing effluent management solutions, particularly in controlled environments or sensitive sites, would be particularly well-suited to compete. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, as the project is structured to support their participation, fostering innovation and capability development within the industry.

## Notice

Magnox Winfrith site is currently being decommissioned. One of the site's decommissioning activities is the design and installation of a standalone 'active' effluent pumping station within the Steam Generating Heavy Water Reactor (SGHWR) and DRAGON facilities. SGHWR - Minimally 'active' effluent is to be pumped from an existing 75m3 delay tank into 1250 litre IBCs located on the ground floor of the SGHWR. DRAGON - Minimally 'active' effluent is to be pumped from an existing 2m3 delay tank into 1250 litre IBCs located externally at the DRAGON facility. Once filled, Magnox will arrange for the IBCs to be transported off-site for disposal. The Employer requires a suitably qualified and experienced supplier to design, install, test and commission the pumping systems in accordance with national standards and the Employers acceptance criteria. The systems are to be designed to operate for a minimum of 10 years from the date of installation. At SGHWR, the supplier will be required to survey the existing effluent storage, pump, and filtration systems to assess their compatibility with, and suitably for, Magnox's planned IBC filling requirements. At DRAGON, the supplier will be required to connect into the existing effluent storage, pump, and filtration systems for Magnox's planned IBC filling requirements. The supplier is required to install a safe and controlled method of transferring effluent from the existing delay tanks at both SGHWR and at DRAGON into 1250 Litre IBCs. At SGHWR, the Contractor is also to design and install a safe method of pumping any effluent spilled during IBC filling back into the delay tank via the existing return lines. The delay tanks within the SGHWR and DRAGON facilities are in radioactive controlled areas and the contractor will be required to work to a written system of work. There is no requirement for 'classified' workers. The work is to be completed by end of December 2022.
