## Summary

The Ministry of Defence is the buyer in the procurement process titled "Destination Nuclear", focused on the advertising campaign services category within the UK. The contract is situated in Bristol and London with an overall objective to attract and retain talent within the nuclear sector by partnering government organisations with suppliers and educational institutions. MHP Group, trading under Next 15 Group, has been awarded the contract. The process is in the Award stage with the final contract due to be signed by 31st July 2025 and service delivery set from 1st August 2025 to 31st March 2026. The contract was directly awarded, an interim measure agreed under the legal basis of UKPGA 2023/54, to continue the campaign operations before a competitive tender can be conducted.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for companies engaged in advertising and talent recruitment, particularly those experienced in large-scale campaigns aimed at sectoral skill enhancements. SMEs, like MHP Group, can effectively compete if they possess a strategic focus on creating impactful outreach initiatives. The contract value of £2,470,640 underscores a substantial investment in promoting careers in the nuclear sector, making it an attractive opportunity for businesses adept at connecting diverse stakeholders through innovative organisational campaigns.

## Notice

Destination Nuclear brings together government organisations across nuclear and civil sectors, suppliers and educational institutions to attract new, and retain existing talent across the entire nuclear, to help fill critical skills gaps. The campaign aims to create awareness of careers in the nuclear sector, attract people from other sectors to a career in nuclear, drive individuals to consider employment in the nuclear sector and ultimately increase the number of quality applications to roles in the sector. The Supplier already provides this service on an expired contract. This is an interim contracting arrangement to allow the Destination Nuclear campaign to continue, whilst a longer term competitive tender can be run.
