## Summary

The public procurement process involves a Framework Agreement for Decommissioning Services initiated by Dounreay Site Restoration Limited, based in Thurso, Caithness. This agreement spans seven years with an anticipated subcontract value of approximately £400 million, starting from September 1, 2018, and ending August 31, 2022.

The main industry categories involved include construction, demolition, and environmental remediation services, with the procurement method being a selective restricted procedure.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in construction and decommissioning services, particularly those with expertise in project management and safety case provisions. Companies engaged in demolition, site preparation, and environmental remediation, as well as those experienced in asbestos removal and engineering design services, could be well-positioned to compete effectively for contracts under this Framework Agreement. The scale and duration of this opportunity may foster growth for firms equipped to handle large-scale projects in the decommissioning sector.
