## Summary

Sellafield Ltd, located in Workington, United Kingdom, has completed a direct procurement process for the acquisition of 32 large waste disposal packages to support the demolition of three RAD buildings. The procurement falls under the goods category within the "Containers for waste material" industry. The official procurement process was finalised on 16th April 2025, and the expected start and end dates for the contract are from 30th April 2025 to 30th May 2025. The process did not involve competition, as it was considered below the threshold for competitive tendering.

This procurement presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in waste management and large-scale demolition operations. Companies with experience in manufacturing or supplying waste containers, especially those designed for hazardous and radioactive waste, will find this contract particularly relevant. The wholesale supply of large soft-sided disposal packages also facilitates easier logistics and faster demolition timelines, providing a competitive edge to firms equipped to handle such requirements efficiently.

## Notice

Procurement of a suitable number (In this order, a total of 32) of large soft-sided disposal packages to support demolition of three RAD buildings. These bags, the specifications of which are attached in the supplementary information, are 2.44m wide x 2.44m tall x 5.79m long, and are intended to fit into a Roll-on, Roll-Off container in a one to one ratio. They are intended to replace smaller packages, such as 1m3 dumpy bags which would otherwise have to be used. The single larger package offers advantages in ease of demolition; direct loading of waste packages by demolition excavator; reduced need to carry out waste size reduction and segregation, accelerating demolition timelines. The types of waste that the bags will be used to dispose of are various, but are all sharp, bulky, non-RAM for transport radioactive wastes, some with a limited range of hazardous properties.
