## Summary

The UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) is seeking proposals for the project titled "UKRI-2085 Analytical Laboratory Services for the Detection, Measurement and Reporting of Radioactivity Levels." This tender falls under the category of laboratory services and is located in the South East of the United Kingdom. The procurement process is currently in the active tender stage, with a submission deadline set for 14 April 2022. The total budget for this contract is £350,000, and it will cover a contract period from 13 May 2022 to 12 May 2026. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, allowing a wide range of suppliers to participate.

This opportunity presents significant potential for business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in laboratory services and scientific analysis. Companies with expertise in radionuclide detection and gamma spectroscopy will be well-positioned to compete for this contract. Given the specific requirements for analysis of various radionuclides, businesses that can demonstrate accreditation and relevant experience in handling and analysing radioactive samples are encouraged to consider submission.

## Notice

UKRI-STFC requires an independent accredited laboratory to carry out destructive analysis for a range of radionuclides and gamma spectrometry on smaller sub samples which require a lower Minimal Detectable Amount (MDA). Most of the samples will require analysis by gamma spectroscopy with some destructive analysis. Dependent on the sample analysis requests might frequently include 55Fe, 63Ni, 3H, 14C and gross alpha beta. The samples will have a typical range of activities ranging from samples of out of scope limits to Intermediate Level Wastes (ILW).
