## Summary

Sellafield Limited has authority over the contracting process titled "Supply of Bulk & Cylinder Gases," which falls under the industrial gases (CPV 24110000) category. This tender covers the procurement of bulk and cylinder gases across the NDA Estate, located in the UK, specifically the UKD11 region. The procurement stage is currently at Award, following a limited procurement method, which was a direct award procedure without prior publication due to the necessity of meeting specific requirements. The contract was awarded to BOC Limited on April 4, 2025, with the contract valued at £24,855,800 GBP, and it was signed on June 30, 2024.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities for suppliers capable of delivering bulk and cylinder gases. Companies already supplying industrial gases or aiming to expand into the nuclear sector would find this contract beneficial. However, the procurement was limited due to BOC Limited being the sole supplier able to meet specific requirements within the UK, suggesting specialised expertise is necessary. Precision in delivery and ensuring compliance with nuclear standards are vital for any future competitive opportunities with Sellafield Limited and similar entities.
