Tender description

Sellafield Ltd (Sellafield) is seeking to obtain feedback on the proposed lotting strategy for the DNWP procurement.

The DNWP multi partner framework has an estimate value of £4bn - £5bn over a 15 year duration. The scope for this procurement covers the full suite of construction, demolition related works, associated technical services (including safety case and design) and waste management required to deliver decommissioning tasks and projects. These works will be deployed across nuclear facilities on the Sellafield site that are in operations, post-operation clean out (POCO), decommissioning or demolition stages of the asset lifecycle.

Lot 1: Remediation Remediation spanning the decommissioning of redundant facilities and managing land quality ahead of beneficial reuse. The remediation of the site towards the agreed end state requires each facility, once operations cease, to be systematically decontaminated and decommissioned, with all waste being responsibly managed. Additional information: There will be 2 partners aligned to the Remediation Lot 1. Lot 2: Retrievals Empty legacy ponds and silos (LP&S), the structural integrity of the 4 LP&S facilities must be safely maintained during the multi-decadal retrieval operations to prevent a significant uncontrolled release into the environment. Additional information: There will be 2 Partners aligned to the Retrievals Lot 2. Lot 3: Integrated Nuclear Waste Partner To incorporate nuclear waste management and associated technical services across the enterprise. This will include support in the design and deployment of effective processes and technologies that optimise end-to-end value in waste management across the enterprise.
