This procurement is categorized under goods with a focus on SCADA or equivalent systems and is being carried out in the United Kingdom, specifically within the UKJ region. The process is currently at the planning stage, with a key deadline for pre-market engagement responses set for 7th July 2025. Interested parties must adhere to the schedule by expressing interest and completing necessary documentation by the given date. The contract period is planned to start on 31st August 2026 and conclude on 30th August 2029. This tender offers significant business opportunities, especially for firms with expertise in SCADA systems and associated technological solutions. It is particularly suitable for businesses that possess the technical experience and capability to integrate subsystems and provide data analysis facilities. By participating in the pre-market engagement, businesses can demonstrate their technical expertise and security compliance, positioning themselves as key suppliers to AWE Plc. This engagement not only provides valuable exposure to government contracts but also the potential for establishing long-term partnerships through the support and maintenance of a critical infrastructure system. ## Notice The scope of the Orion SCADA replacement project is to replace the existing system to meet current operational requirements and modern standards. The new SCADA system will be required to support a variety of activities including integration with all sub-systems, provision of data analysis facilities, compliance with relevant standards and delivery of overall support to Orion operations through the next phase of its lifetime. ### Planning Information This pre-market engagement will take the form of a Pre-Market Engagement Questionnaire. Respondents are invited to express their interest and complete this questionnaire to help AWE understand the suitability of the UK supply chain in terms of technical experience, and professional capability as well as any industry and operational environment/ context AWE should consider in any future procurements. Respondents who are interested in participating in this pre-market engagement activity are requested to: 1. Send an Expression of Interest to the AWE Procurement mailbox by Tuesday 24th June 2025. 2. Complete the proforma and return to the AWE Procurement mailbox and Supply Chain Security email which is included within the document. If the proforma is approved, the supplier will receive an NDA to complete 3. Once the NDA is returned, the pre-market engagement questionnaire will be issued to the supplier for review and completion 4. Owing to the nature of AWE's activities, AWE will undertake a security assessment against the information suppliers provide in the proforma form and the pre-market engagement questionnaire (and in any related preliminary market engagement activities). For the avoidance of doubt, suppliers will not be invited to participate in further engagement associated with this notice if as a result of this assessment (or based on other grounds) they do not meet the necessary security standards.

Respondents are requested to send all communication for this pre-market engagement activity to the AWE Procurement mailbox (aweprocurement@awe.co.uk).
