This procurement falls under the services category, specifically classed as engineering support services. The contract stage is now marked as 'Award', with the final contracts awarded on 2nd December 2020. The awarded contracts are set to commence on 1st January 2021, with an end date of 31st December 2023, providing a significant duration for service delivery. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses that specialise in engineering support, safety consultancy, and technical analysis services. Companies with expertise in safety case support and peer review processes, particularly larger contractors, would be well-positioned to leverage this opportunity and contribute to the UK's fusion research initiatives. With consortium collaborations and a focus on innovative experiments, suppliers in these technical sectors may find substantial growth potential through engagements with the UK's national laboratory for fusion research. ## Notice The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority owns and operates the Culham Centre for Fusion Energy (CCFE) which is the UK's national laboratory for fusion research. CCFE is based at Culham Science Centre in Oxfordshire. The Authority is responsible for the operation of the JET (Joint European Torus) facilities, via a contract between itself and the European Commission. JET is the world's largest magnetic fusion experiment and is still at the forefront of fusion research and is closely involved in testing plasma physics, systems and materials for ITER. The JET facilities are collectively used by all European fusion laboratories under the EUROfusion consortium. About 350 scientists from Europe, plus more from around the globe, participate in JET experiments each year, co-ordinated by a programme management unit. The UK fusion programme is centred on the innovative MAST (Mega Amp Spherical Tokamak) experiment which is also based at CCFE and employs around 150 people. In support of the above work, the Authority has a requirement for the Supply of Safety Case and Peer Review Support Services. The Client has awarded two contracts to two Suppliers. One Supplier will receive a contract for Safety Case Support; and a further Supplier will receive a contract for Peer Review Support. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/1a5ec0ad-3c98-4b4b-a23a-5359b907becd | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 24 Dec 2020 | | Submission deadline | 8 Oct 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 2 Dec 2020 | | Contract period | 1 Jan 2021 - 31 Dec 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £1 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | 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 | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 2 | | Supplier names | ARCADIS (UK; JACOBS CLEAN ENERGY | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 71336000 - Engineering support services - 71350000 - Engineering-related scientific and technical services - 71356300 - Technical support services - 71621000 - Technical analysis or consultancy services - 79417000 - Safety consultancy services - 98113000 - Services furnished by specialist organisations ## Release History - 24 Dec 2020 at 08:30 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/1a5ec0ad-3c98-4b4b-a23a-5359b907becd ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/1a5ec0ad-3c98-4b4b-a23a-5359b907becd 24th December 2020 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/72814 Organisation Profile ## 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.
