## Summary

Dounreay Site Restoration Limited (DSRL) is conducting a procurement process for a Framework Agreement for Mechanical Services (Minor), which aims to establish contracts with up to six contractors over a period of four years, from December 2016 to November 2020. This procurement is currently at the Award stage, with the initial contract period set for two years until October 2018, with options for two one-year extensions based on performance and ongoing requirements. The procurement employs a selective method under a restricted procedure, catering to the mechanical engineering services industry, particularly in the Thurso, Caithness area (postal code KW14 7TZ). The tender period concluded on 8 August 2016, and the announcement of the awarded contract was published on 15 December 2016, with a total estimated contract value of £10 million.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the mechanical engineering sector, particularly small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) looking to expand their portfolio. Companies offering minor design, fabrication, installation, testing, commissioning, and maintenance services would be especially well-positioned to compete for this framework agreement. Given DSRL's intention to work with a diverse range of contractors, businesses with relevant experience and capability in providing mechanical services could greatly benefit from this contract, paving the way for future collaboration and growth in the industry.
