Description

This Invitation to Tender (ITT) is being managed in two lots, both for Radiation Protection Advisory Services.

Lot 1 - The Home Office requires a radiation protection advisory service across all ports and airports in the UK and its Juxtaposed Ports in Europe to ensure it meets its legal requirements under the Ionising Radiation Regulations 2017 (IRR17). The requirement also includes provision of associated equipment (and its repair and calibration),a dosimetry service, training of staff on radiation issues, a 24-hour helpline and on-site attendance where requested. It may also include characterisation, transportation and disposal services for radioactive goods. The requirement is for a contract with a single supplier. HMRC will also be named as a Cluster member under the potential contract.

Lot 2 - The purpose of this procurement is to secure the services of a Radiological Protection Advisor to allow the Ministry of Justice as a public body, to use this Contract as and when required to satisfy its obligations under The Ionising Radiation Regulations 2017 (IRR17). As a Department of Her Majesty's Government of the UK, the Buyer exists to maintain and protect a justice system that builds a better society, supports a growing economy and protects the public.
The Buyer is at the heart of the justice system, working to protect and advance the principles of Justice. Our three largest agencies are:
- Her Majesty's Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS)
- Her Majesty's Courts and Tribunals Service (HMCTS)
- The Legal Aid Agency (LAA)
These agencies run vital public services including prisons, probation, courts, tribunals and legal aid.

Both Lots will be awarded a Contract that will be fully owned and managed by the relevant Buyer.

Bidders are welcome to submit Tenders for both Lots, however in the event that they are the successful Bidder for both they can only be awarded one. The Bidders are asked to indicate their preference as part of their submission.
