This project falls under the goods category, specifically within the industry of measuring and control equipment. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, with a future engagement notice expected on 1st December 2021. The main location for this project is at the Culham Science Centre in Abingdon, UK, where the new H3AT Facility will be constructed to handle tritium-bearing gases and liquid mixtures. This tender presents significant opportunities for suppliers, especially for prime contractors, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), system designers, and manufacturers of relevant equipment. Businesses involved in areas such as project and design preparation, engineering design services, and installation services of mechanical and electrical equipment will be well-suited to compete. Engaging in this procurement could enhance business growth, particularly for those catering to the unique requirements of the ADS Sub-System and related technologies needed in the fusion research industry. ## Notice UKAEA wishes to engage with potential prime contractors, SME's, system designers and manufacturers of equipment for the ADS Sub-System within the Tritium Plant located in the new H3AT Facility, to process tritium-bearing gases and liquid mixtures. Through this process we are looking to open up the engagement for suppliers to understand the specific requirements for water scrubber columns and surrounding equipment as part of the ADS Sub-System and assist with informing the final procurement strategy. ### Lot Information Lot 1 UKAEA wishes to engage with potential prime contractors, SME's, system designers and manufacturers of equipment for the ADS Sub-System within the Tritium Plant located in the new H3AT Facility, to process tritium-bearing gases and liquid mixtures. The H3AT Facility Tritium Plant consists of the following sub-systems: * SDS - Storage and Delivery System * TVS - Tokamak Vacuum Simulation * HPS - Hydrogen Chemical Purification System * ISS - Hydrogen Isotope Separation System * WDS - Water Detritiation System * ADS - Atmosphere Detritiation System * ANS - Chemical and Isotope Analysis of Gaseous Mixtures System * RGM - Radiological and Hazardous Gas Monitoring System The Facility is a tool of the H3AT Project, for which the missions are: * Supporting Delivery of fusion as a commercial power source * Promoting industry, academia and research companies for work related to handling tritium and other radioactive isotopes * Providing capability for training of next generation of scientists and engineers for development of the new power sources Through this process we are looking to open up the engagement for suppliers to understand the specific requirements for water scrubber columns and surrounding equipment as part of the ADS Sub-System and assist with informing the final procurement strategy. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/026310-2021 | | Notice type | Planning Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 20 Oct 2021 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 1 Dec 2021 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Planned | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | UNITED KINGDOM ATOMIC ENERGY AUTHORITY | | Locality | ABINGDON | | Post town | Oxford | | Postcode | OX14 3DB | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ1 Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire | | ITL 3 | TLJ14 Oxfordshire CC | | Local authority | South Oxfordshire | | Electoral ward | Sandford & the Wittenhams | | Westminster constituency | Didcot and Wantage | | Delivery location | TLJ14 Oxfordshire CC | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 31 - Electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment and consumables; lighting - 38 - Laboratory, optical and precision equipments (excl. glasses) - 42 - Industrial machinery - 51 - Installation services (except software) - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ### Codes - 31161400 - Primary water systems - 38340000 - Instruments for measuring quantities - 38420000 - Instruments for measuring flow, level and pressure of liquids and gases - 38424000 - Measuring and control equipment - 38570000 - Regulating and controlling instruments and apparatus - 38930000 - Humidity and moisture measuring instruments - 42120000 - Pumps and compressors - 42122100 - Pumps for liquids - 42131100 - Valves defined by function - 42131140 - Pressure-reducing, control, check or safety valves - 51100000 - Installation services of electrical and mechanical equipment - 51110000 - Installation services of electrical equipment - 51120000 - Installation services of mechanical equipment - 51810000 - Installation services of tanks - 51820000 - Installation services of reservoirs - 71242000 - Project and design preparation, estimation of costs - 71320000 - Engineering design services - 71323200 - Plant engineering design services - 71335000 - Engineering studies - 71350000 - Engineering-related scientific and technical services ## Release History - 20 Oct 2021 at 16:40 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/026310-2021 ## Notice URLs - http://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/uk-atomic-energy-authority - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=40167&B=UK - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/72814 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
