## Summary

The procurement process conducted by Radioactive Waste Management Limited focuses on the review of the durability of Intermediate Level Waste (ILW) concrete containers and High-Level Waste (HLW)/Spent Fuel (SF) buffers. With a total contract value of £51,050, the procurement falls under the category of research and development services. This award was finalised on 10th January 2017, following a tender period that concluded on 9th November 2016. The project is based in Didcot, Oxfordshire and is part of the services sector.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in research and consultancy within the nuclear waste management field.

The successful supplier in this instance was Galson Sciences Ltd, implying that firms with a strong track record in similar projects can leverage this as a stepping stone for future contracts in the industry.
