## Summary

The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) procured a PFAS technology review, a research and consultancy service concerning technologies relevant to PFAS. The procurement was called off from the NDA’s Strategy Framework. The NDA is a central government body based in Cumbria. The scope is described as a technology review; the published contract information does not further explain the topics, technologies or sites to be covered. A supplier considering similar work for the NDA should therefore understand this requirement as specialist research and consultancy rather than the supply of equipment or delivery of construction works. The service category is research and development and related consultancy.

The procurement is complete: TÜV SÜD Ltd was selected and the contract is active. It was awarded through a selective, below-threshold call-off from an existing framework, without a competitive call-off. The contract was signed on 23 October 2026 and runs from 26 October 2026 to 31 March 2027, with a possible one-month extension to 30 April 2027 subject to NDA approval. Its value is £77,420 excluding VAT (£92,904 including VAT). The procurement comprises one lot. The award information does not state an evaluation method or specific eligibility criteria. Contract performance is to follow the specification, proposed timetable and costings, with monthly progress and cost updates, quarterly social value reporting, and NDA approval required before changes or additional spending.

This award shows demand from the NDA for specialist PFAS technology review delivered as research and consultancy through a framework call-off. A credible future competitor would need to demonstrate the ability to undertake the review required by the specification and deliver agreed outputs to a proposed timetable and costing. The contract also places importance on regular, trackable project reporting, including monthly updates on progress, costs and delivery, and on following a controlled change process that obtains the Authority’s approval before changes or additional spending. Social value is part of delivery: reporting must evidence continued action to address inequality in employment, skills and pay among the contract workforce. The published requirements identify no particular accreditation or named technical method.
