## Summary

Sellafield Limited procured engineering and maintenance asset assessment services for the MEP and WEP areas within Retrievals East River at the Sellafield site in Seascale, Cumbria. The work supports assessment of site assets; the published scope describes support to Sellafield’s Engineering and Maintenance Asset Assessment activity. This is a specialist engineering and maintenance services requirement, rather than a purchase of equipment or construction work. Sellafield Limited is the buyer and the work is site-based at Sellafield. The procurement is relevant to firms with the technical capability to assess assets in an engineering and maintenance environment and support work in the MEP and WEP areas of Retrievals East River.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Cumbria O & M Services Ltd. The award was made on 25 September 2026, with a contract period from 29 September 2026 to 30 September 2028. The awarded value is £3,180,929.28. The requirement was let as a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 17 August 2026 at 12:00. The procurement is classified as services, and the stated suitability assessment says it was not suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. No separate lots or evaluation criteria are recorded in the published process data.

For firms that did not win, this award is evidence that Sellafield buys dedicated engineering and maintenance asset assessment support for MEP and WEP in Retrievals East River. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to demonstrate the engineering expertise to assess site assets and deliver practical support within Sellafield’s maintenance and retrievals environment. The selected supplier is a small or medium-sized business, showing that a specialist SME was capable of winning this contract despite the procurement’s stated suitability assessment. Businesses should also be prepared to compete through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, rather than assume the requirement will be run as a standalone open tender. The work is a focused, substantial site-services package for Sellafield, so relevant asset-assessment experience and the capacity to support the site requirement are commercially pertinent.
