The procurement is currently in the planning stage, with a future notice anticipated on 31 July 2022. The proposed equipment will be required for the Tritium Plant at the H3AT Facility, which is under construction in Culham, Abingdon, UK. The buyer aims to engage with prime contractors, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and manufacturers of electric heaters and power controller hardware to ensure sufficient production capability and capacity for the project's requirements. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the electrical machinery, process control equipment, and engineering services sectors. Companies that manufacture electrical parts, provide engineering designs, or specialise in industrial process control equipment would be particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging in this procurement can enhance a business's portfolio while contributing to critical fusion research initiatives, with the potential for establishing lasting relationships with a key governmental authority. ## Notice UKAEA wishes to engage with potential prime contractors, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises, electric heater and Power controller hardware manufacturers for the supply of 6-off inline process heater for use with Tritium containing gas or liquid media, associated power controllers, embedded sensors and cabling. Quantities and detailed specifications are to be confirmed following preliminary and detailed design. These inline process heaters will be for use in a number of sub-systems that will make up the Tritium Plant located within the new H3AT Facility currently in construction on the UKAEA Culham site. ### Lot Information Lot 1 UKAEA wishes to engage with potential prime contractors, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises, electric heater and Power controller hardware manufacturers for the supply of 6-off inline process heater for use with Tritium containing gas or liquid media, associated power controllers, embedded sensors and cabling. Quantities and detailed specifications are to be confirmed following preliminary and detailed design. These inline process heaters will be for use in a number of sub-systems that will make up the Tritium Plant located within the new H3AT Facility currently in construction on the UKAEA Culham site. The current sub systems requiring Process Inline Heaters are:- * Hydrogen Chemical Purification System [HPS] * Water Detritiation System (deemed collaborative contract development) [WDS] * Atmosphere Detritiation System [ADS] (please note this list is subject to change and other sub systems may be included) Through this process we are looking to open up engagement with suppliers to ensure there is sufficient production capability and capacity to meet project timelines and design requirements. After the engagement exercise, UKAEA intend to issue an Invitation to Tender through the EU Supply and Find a Tender portals (replacement to Tenders Electronic Daily) to procure services for design and provision of equipment through competitively tendered contracts. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/006133-2022 | | 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 | 7 Mar 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 30 Jul 2022 | | 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 - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 31000000 - Electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment and consumables; lighting - 31230000 - Parts of electricity distribution or control apparatus - 31670000 - Electrical parts of machinery or apparatus - 31680000 - Electrical supplies and accessories - 31720000 - Electromechanical equipment - 31730000 - Electrotechnical equipment - 31731100 - Modules - 38126300 - Temperature or humidity surface observing apparatus - 38424000 - Measuring and control equipment - 38570000 - Regulating and controlling instruments and apparatus - 38800000 - Industrial process control equipment and remote-control equipment - 38810000 - Industrial process control equipment - 38820000 - Remote-control equipment - 42511000 - Heat-exchange units and machinery for liquefying air or other gases - 42511100 - Heat-exchange units - 42910000 - Distilling, filtering or rectifying apparatus - 42967000 - Controller unit - 42993000 - Chemical industry machinery - 71300000 - Engineering services - 71320000 - Engineering design services - 71323000 - Engineering-design services for industrial process and production - 71330000 - Miscellaneous engineering services - 71333000 - Mechanical engineering services - 71335000 - Engineering studies - 71336000 - Engineering support services - 71340000 - Integrated engineering services - 71350000 - Engineering-related scientific and technical services - 73100000 - Research and experimental development services - 73120000 - Experimental development services ## Release History - 7 Mar 2022 at 10:39 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/006133-2022 ## Notice URLs - http://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/uk-atomic-energy-authority - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=44445&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.
