This project aims to investigate the potential impacts and benefits of developing a Geological Disposal Facility (GDF) for higher activity radioactive waste in the South Copeland community through a desk-based literature review. The current procurement stage is Planning, with an engagement end date set for 5th September 2024. This process will utilise the Business and Technical Services Marketplace, a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS). Interested suppliers must register for the Environmental category on the DPS via the Atamis supplier portal. The delivery addresses for this project include multiple regions such as Europe, United Kingdom, and British Oversea Territories, among others. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in research services (CPV code 73110000) and community services to gain a foothold in the public sector market. Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to participate. By engaging in this project, businesses can contribute to critical community-focused research, providing valuable insights during the GDF's siting, characterisation, construction, and operational phases. Additionally, further business development can occur as the study is anticipated to expand and evolve over time, addressing new areas of concern. ## Notice The purpose of this work is to investigate the potential impacts on, and benefits for the community of the development of a Geological Disposal Facility (GDF) for higher activity radioactive waste. The Study will take the form of a desk-based literature review and will draw together information to give the South Copeland community insight into how it might look and feel to host a GDF during its siting, characterisation, construction and operational phases. It is anticipated that this will form an initial study which will be refined and expanded over time to focus upon other areas of concerns that may arise. This procurement will be conducted using the Business and Technical Services Marketplace which is a DPS. Suppliers wishing to be considered for this opportunity will therefore be required to register for the Environmental category on the DPS.
