The consultancy aims to accelerate the development of STEP RMJ technology, focusing on Rare Earth Barium Copper Oxide (REBCO) technical superconductors and related areas, particularly in the context of nuclear fusion. The tender is at the planning stage, with a future notice date of 1st August 2024. The buying organisation is located at Culham Campus, Abingdon, UK and can be contacted via Catherine Sirotkin at +44 1235467082 or catherine.sirotkin@ukaea.uk. This tender opportunity presents a chance for businesses experienced in research and development consultancy services, specifically in superconductivity and nuclear fusion technologies, to engage in a high-profile project concerning magnet joints technology. Suitable businesses should possess expertise in Rare Earth Barium Copper Oxide (REBCO) superconductors, resistive joints in superconducting cables, and high-spec superconductor testing facilities. The opportunity, initiated by the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority, offers potential for business growth by providing unique experience and expertise rather than just the ability to deliver an engineering product. ## Notice The services provided under this consultancy are intended to accelerate the development of STEP RMJ technology by reviewing the programme and providing expertise currently lacking in the team towards future test campaigns. The scope of the contract may also include the requirement for development engineering support. This specification is intended to procure unique experience and expertise, rather than a unique ability to deliver an engineering product. The service provider shall have a demonstrable track record (experience and expertise) in as many of the following as possible: Rare Earth Barium Copper Oxide (REBCO) technical superconductors, resistive joints between superconducting cables and high spec superconductor test facilities, preferably all within the context of nuclear fusion. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The services provided under this consultancy are intended to accelerate the development of STEP RMJ technology by reviewing the programme and providing expertise currently lacking in the team towards future test campaigns.
