## Summary

The public procurement process described involves a direct award contract issued by Nuclear Restoration Services, a division of Magnox Limited, for the demolition of an existing DN026 structure. This falls under the "Demolition work" industry category with a CPV code of 45111100. The procurement was in the "Award" stage as of 10 September 2024. The contract, valued at £50,540, was awarded to John Gunn & Sons Ltd. The contract period is set to commence on 12 September 2024 and conclude on 25 October 2024. The scope of work is to be executed at Dounreay in Thurso, specifically coded as KW14 7TZ, but is relevant to several geographic areas including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and the Rest of the World. This procurement utilised a single tender action (below threshold) method.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises specialising in demolition and related construction activities. With the direct procurement method, businesses that have a niche expertise in demolition within the specified geographic areas may find this to be a valuable project, allowing them to showcase their skills and build a relationship with a notable buying organisation such as Nuclear Restoration Services. Such opportunities also provide a strong foundation for potential future contracts in government or large-scale private sector demolitions, given the specialised nature of the work and the visibility of the procuring entity’s projects.
