## Summary

Nuclear Restoration Site Limited (Dounreay) has completed the procurement process for the "Mechanical Design Services" contract within the mechanical engineering services industry, specifically supporting the ADU Floc project. The procurement was handled through a selective method, calling off from a framework agreement, ensuring a tailored approach to sourcing the necessary support. The contract was awarded to Bloom Procurement Services Limited on 15th August 2024, with a contract period from 26th August 2024 to 31st August 2025. The project's scope includes addressing design queries, problem resolutions, drawing modifications, and using a 3D model for installation processes. Key locations for this project include the facilities in Thurso, Scotland, with a postal code of KW14 7TZ.

This tender presents a significant business growth opportunity, especially for firms specialising in mechanical design and engineering services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to engage, given the procurement's suitability for such entities. Companies adept at providing specialised technical advice, performing detailed calculations, and offering innovative solutions for obsolete items or issues identified during Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) would find this project particularly rewarding. Participation in this project will not only provide a substantial financial contract but also the chance to collaborate on a high-profile initiative in the nuclear restoration sector, broadening business prospects and industry credibility.

## Notice

The ADU Floc project require support to provide/perform discrete packages of work. It is envisaged that the support will come in the form of providing advice on design queries, clarifications, problem resolutions, drawing modifications/updates, calculations, alternatives to obsolete items, issues arising from Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), as and when required. The successful contractor will also be using the facility 3D model, which allows the installation process to be defined and critical now that the installation contractor has been removed and this support will extend beyond the main Immobilisation line to the modification of the supporting facilities (D1208 & D2700/ 01) as well as the new building (DN-253) support systems.
