This construction contract falls within the construction industry category and will be situated on the Sellafield Site in the UK. Currently, the procurement stage is in the planning phase, with market engagement activities expected to begin in mid-2023, following advanced notice issued on 2nd August 2022. Interested suppliers are encouraged to register on Sellafield’s CTM or ATAMIS systems to participate in forthcoming industry events and access additional documentation. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in construction, engineering, waste management, and decommissioning services. Companies capable of delivering large-scale construction projects, providing technical consultancy, and managing waste effectively would be well-positioned to compete for the various lots within this multi-partner framework. Suppliers engaged in remediation, retrieval, and waste characterisation are particularly suited, considering the diverse scope outlined for each lot as Sellafield aims for a collaborative and effective partnership over the projected 15-year term. ## Notice The DNWP will be the successor of the existing Decommissioning Delivery Partnership (DDP) which is a 10 (5+5) year arrangement due to end in March 2026. The DNWP multi partner framework has an estimate value of PS3bn over a 15 year (9+6) duration. The scope for this procurement covers the full suite of construction, demolition related works, associated technical services (including safety case and design) and waste management required to deliver decommissioning tasks and projects. These works will be deployed across nuclear facilities on the Sellafield site that are in operations, post-operation clean out (POCO), decommissioning or demolition stages of the asset lifecycle. ### Lot Information Remediation Scope requirements for Lot 1 include: Remediation spanning the decommissioning of redundant facilities and managing land quality ahead of beneficial reuse. The remediation of the site towards the agreed end state requires each facility, once operations cease, to be systematically decontaminated and decommissioned, with all waste being responsibly managed. Additional information: There will be 2 partners aligned to the Remediation Lot 1. The estimate value range for Lot 1 is PS1.2bn - PS1.4bn. Retrievals Scope requirements for Lot 2 include: Empty legacy ponds and silos (LP&S), the structural integrity of the 4 LP&S facilities must be safely maintained during the multi-decadal retrieval operations to prevent a significant uncontrolled release into the environment. Additional information: There will be 2 Partners aligned to the Retrievals Lot 2. The estimate total value for Lot 2 is PS1.4bn Waste Characterisation Scope requirements for Lot 3 includes: To incorporate nuclear waste management and associated technical services across the enterprise. This will include support in the design and deployment of effective processes and technologies that optimise end-to-end value in waste management across the enterprise. It will only cover waste management support on the Sellafield site, though the service provider will be expected to closely collaborate with Nuclear Waste Services (NWS), an NDA group subsidiary. Additional information: There will be 1 Partner aligned to the Waste Characterisation Lot 3. The estimate total value for Lot 3 is PS0.5bn ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/021171-2022 | | Notice type | Planning Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | 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 | 2 Aug 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 15 Jun 2023 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £3,000,000,000 | | 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 | SELLAFIELD LTD | | Locality | SEASCALE | | Post town | Carlisle | | Postcode | CA20 1PG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD1 Cumbria | | ITL 3 | TLD13 Cumberland | | Local authority | Cumberland | | Electoral ward | Gosforth | | Westminster constituency | Whitehaven and Workington | | Delivery location | TLD11 West Cumbria | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 22 - Printed matter and related products - 42 - Industrial machinery - 43 - Machinery for mining, quarrying, construction equipment - 44 - Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) - 45 - Construction work - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 22314000 - Designs - 42000000 - Industrial machinery - 43320000 - Construction equipment - 44421722 - Safety cases - 45000000 - Construction work - 45100000 - Site preparation work - 45111000 - Demolition, site preparation and clearance work - 45111200 - Site preparation and clearance work - 45111213 - Site-clearance work - 45210000 - Building construction work - 45220000 - Engineering works and construction works - 45222110 - Waste disposal site construction work - 45315100 - Electrical engineering installation works - 45351000 - Mechanical engineering installation works - 71320000 - Engineering design services - 71321000 - Engineering design services for mechanical and electrical installations for buildings - 71322000 - Engineering design services for the construction of civil engineering works - 71530000 - Construction consultancy services - 79400000 - Business and management consultancy and related services - 79410000 - Business and management consultancy services - 79415200 - Design consultancy services - 79723000 - Waste analysis services - 79933000 - Design support services - 98391000 - Decommissioning services ## Release History - 2 Aug 2022 at 16:01 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/021171-2022 ## Notice URLs - https://onenda.force.com/s/Welcome - https://sharedsystems.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=15961&B=SELLAFIELD - https://sharedsystems.eu-supply.com/pub/registercompany.asp?OID=7&B=SELLAFIELD - https://www.gov.uk/government/case-studies/shared-services-alliance-ssa-for-nuclear-decommissioning-estate ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
