## Summary

The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) based in London is responsible for commissioning the project titled "Engage 2 - Hosting Generation IV International Forum Autumn 2024 Meeting." This project involves organising and hosting the Autumn 2024 meeting of the Generation IV International Forum, with services categorized under research consultancy (CPV code 73210000). The procurement process has been completed, with the award published on 24th October 2024. The contract, valued at £150,000, spans from 2nd September 2024 to 31st March 2025 and involves a direct procurement method through a single tender action below the threshold. The forum will address various international locations including the British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, and the United Kingdom. Key deadlines included the tender period ending on 1st July 2024 and the contract award date on 17th September 2024.

This tender offers a significant growth opportunity for businesses specialising in research consultancy services, particularly those with expertise in nuclear systems and international conference coordination. Although the contract has been awarded to the National Nuclear Laboratory Limited, a large-scale entity, it emphasizes the need for coordination at a global level. Businesses in the nuclear energy sector, event management companies capable of handling international forums, and those providing research and consultancy services are ideally suited to compete in similar future opportunities. This project highlights the importance of collaboration within global nuclear research initiatives, offering businesses a platform to showcase their capabilities in a high-profile international setting.
