Located in the United Kingdom, this procurement is at the tender stage, having been published on 25th September 2017. The tender period concluded on 22nd September 2017, with the contract set to start on 15th June 2018 and run until 14th June 2043, with a total estimated value of £52 million. The procurement is being conducted through a Competitive Dialogue process, classified as a non-OJEU procedure. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in training services, particularly those with expertise in defence-related sectors. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can demonstrate experience in delivering specialist training or educational services aligned with the nuclear sector would find this opportunity particularly relevant. The requirement for a permanent, fit-for-purpose facility means that organisations capable of providing bespoke training environments and demonstrating access to necessary academic skills will be in a strong position to compete and potentially win the contract. ## Notice the Nuclear Department (ND) has an enduring requirement for classified, specialist nuclear T&E to support Defence Tasks including the Continuous at Sea Deterrence. The ND provides training to personnel across defence to prepare them for roles throughout the lifecycle of the defence nuclear programme. The ND seeks permanent fit for purpose facilities with demonstrable access to the necessary academic skills to ensure that current and future nuclear T&E can be met.
