## Summary

Nuclear Restoration Services Limited (NRS), through its Dounreay site, procured servicing for forklift trucks, mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) and other mobile plant. The requirement is vehicle and equipment maintenance and repair, covering the plant used at Dounreay in Scotland. This is a site-specific service contract for operational equipment rather than a purchase of new machinery. Suppliers whose work focuses on maintaining and repairing forklifts, MEWPs and mobile plant are the closest fit.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. NRS awarded it directly, without competition, to Briggs Equipment UK Limited. The contract was signed on 25 September 2026 and runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £135,205 excluding VAT (£162,246 including VAT). The process was a single lot. The published information identifies a direct award but gives no separate evaluation criteria or assessment basis; the supplier was selected without a competitive procedure.

This award shows that NRS’s Dounreay site has a defined requirement for servicing forklifts, MEWPs and mobile plant. A credible competitor when this specific service is next procured would need to demonstrate practical capability to maintain and repair all three equipment types and to support plant operations at the Dounreay site in Scotland. The selected supplier, Briggs Equipment UK Limited, is a large business, and its selection gives an indication of the supplier profile used for this requirement. The direct award was made without competition, so it does not establish how NRS would assess suppliers or what technical standards, accreditations, staffing levels or response arrangements would be required in a competitive procurement.
