## Summary

Sellafield Ltd, a sub-central government public authority based in Workington, United Kingdom, has completed a procurement process titled "Service and support of B86 Security Systems - Capula". This process falls under the services category and specifically pertains to system maintenance services for a nuclear materials storage plant. The procurement method was direct, executed below threshold and without competition, considering Capula as the sole capable provider. The contract is set to commence on 6th May 2025 and conclude by 31st March 2026, with an award value of £52,650 net, totalling £63,180 gross. The procurement stage has reached completion, awaiting pending award decision by 5th May 2025.

This procurement presents opportunities primarily for those businesses involved in specialised security systems maintenance, particularly in high-security environments such as nuclear facilities. It is preferentially suited to companies like Capula, which already possess the unique technical skills and qualifications necessary to handle such sensitive equipment. The nature of this direct award indicates a niche market where possessing proprietary expertise can significantly enhance business growth opportunities through exclusive contracts. Therefore, industries tied to advanced security or nuclear facilities would benefit significantly from engaging in similar procurement ventures.

## Notice

B86 is an owned plant by SNM and is used for the storage of nuclear materials, as such it has a stand alone security system that needs support. Capula are the only company able to support this system.
