## Summary

The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) has recently completed a tender for the "Supply & Installation of 30 Switchframes" located at Culham Science Centre, Abingdon, with a total contract value of approximately £700,000. This project, classified under the CPV code for "Electrical apparatus for switching or protecting electrical circuits," aimed to replace existing cast iron cased switches with modern electronic switches.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in electrical engineering installation works and those offering electrical apparatus supply and installation services. Companies that align with the requirements are encouraged to engage with the UKAEA and consider participating in future tenders, as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly suited to compete due to the nature of the contract. With the UKAEA's commitment to modernisation and efficient electrical solutions, suppliers with innovative technologies and installation expertise stand to benefit from partnership opportunities in this sector.
