Description

This Prior Information Notice 6 (PIN 6), without call for competition, is to alert the market that Sellafield Ltd is continuing with market engagement activity for the forthcoming Project and Asset Care Execution (PACE) Contract Opportunity.

This PIN 6 supplements the previous:
• PIN 1 reference CF-0113800D4L000000iAvzUAE
• PIN 2 reference CF-0133500D4L000000iAvzUAE
• PIN 3 reference CF-0155800D4L000000iAvzUAE
• PIN 4 reference CF-0188400D4L000000iAvzUAE
• PIN 4A reference CF-0191900D4L000000iAvzUAE; and
• PIN 5 reference CF-0192900D4L000000iAvzUAE

As a result of this sixth PIN and as part of the ongoing market engagement activity, Sellafield Ltd is to provide information to the market in relation to the PACE opportunity, this includes the Functional Specification and Scope of Work; output from the Market Engagement Event held on 14th November 2024; and updates in relation to the incentivisation model / further areas of interest from PIN 5. These are set out in the supporting PACE PIN Market Engagement Information document shared via Atamis.

The majority of the work will take place in operational nuclear facilities and in radiologically controlled areas. The work involves maintaining existing asset condition and providing new asset capabilities when needed.

With the description provided as high-level examples only, the capabilities that will be required fit broadly into the following work disciplines and service types:
- Civil works, including roofing, painting, fencing, roads and paths etc.;
- Mechanical works, including heating and ventilation, pipework, steelwork etc.;
- Electrical works, including building lighting, alarm systems, instrumentation etc; and
- Project works, including Project, Contract & Cost Management etc.

The proposed strategy for the agreement duration is a 9+6 framework up to a maximum 15-year term.

The value of the work will be subject to ongoing governance and approval on an annual basis, but for planning purposes the mid-range estimate of the anticipated framework value across all the work package categories for the maximum duration of 15 years is £2,400,000,000 (£2,400m).
