## Summary

The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) recently completed the procurement process for the "Removal of Controlled Waste" from its Culham Campus, located near Abingdon, Oxfordshire. This contract falls under the services category and is focused on non-hazardous refuse and waste treatment and disposal, as classified under the CPV code 90513000. Initially, this tender went through an open procedure, with the tender phase beginning in February 2025 and concluding in March of the same year. The contract was awarded to Biffa Waste Services Limited, with the contract signed on 1st October 2025 for an estimated value of £400,000 GBP. The project includes an option to extend annually for an additional year, if necessary.

This procurement process presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies specialising in waste management and environmental services. The UKAEA's call-off requirement and substantial contract value may appeal to large-scale service providers with capabilities in technical delivery and environmental sustainability. In addition, suppliers focusing on transport services and those who place an emphasis on social value and quality assurance in their operations could find this opportunity particularly lucrative, as these are pivotal components of the award criteria. Despite being a large contract, it seems to have had limited competition from SMEs, indicating a potentially less saturated market for similar future opportunities.
