This project falls within the goods category, primarily focused on radiation monitoring. The procurement is currently in the tender stage, with an open bidding process underway. Suppliers have until 14:00 on 8th August 2022 to submit their Expressions of Interest, and the contract award is expected to commence on 19th August 2022, lasting until 18th August 2025. The estimated contract value ranges from £50,000 to £100,000, and delivery is anticipated across various locations, including the UK and overseas territories. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in the design, manufacture, and calibration of radiation detection equipment. Businesses with expertise in engineering, manufacturing of electronic monitoring devices, and software development for control systems would be particularly well-positioned to compete for this contract. In addition, firms capable of delivering quality control testing and offering innovative solutions to improve radiation safety are encouraged to participate. ## Notice NOTE: This notice was updated on 22 July 2022 for the following reason: The deadline for UKRI-2291 Radiation Monitors for Gamma Detection Outside Concrete Test Facility Shielding, has been extended. The new deadline for suppliers to submit their Expressions of Interest is 14:00hrs on 08th August 2022.(This tender requires the design, manufacture, quality control testing and calibration of an initial eight (8), fixed ionising radiation monitors and applicable control software with the option of purchasing an additional four (4) in the subsequent three years. The intended use for these monitors is in fixed occupied locations outside the primary shielding. In these locations, radiation is heavily attenuated by the accelerator components and shielding structures. The shielding has been designed such that dose rates external to the shield walls of the accelerator should be below 1 uSv/h, however, unexpected beam losses can occur which could lead to unplanned, elevated dose rates above the design criteria outside the enclosure. The purpose of these monitors is to detect dose rates at systematically selected locations around the accelerator and either warn those in the vicinity or terminate power to the accelerator depending on the magnitude of the detected dose rate.) Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
