## Summary

Dounreay Site Restoration Limited (DSRL), through the CTM Portal for the NDA Shared Services Alliance, has recently awarded a contract for the "Concept Design for the Prototype Fast Reactor Intermediate Level Waste Size Reduction Facility," with a total value of £1,200,000. The procurement process has reached the award stage, following a tender initiation type. The contract, awarded to Amentum, commenced on 19th October 2020 and is set to conclude on 17th September 2021.
