        "description": "This project is an Innovation Partnership procurement route and therefore requires innovative ideas and solutions. The procurement over 4 years will provide a deployed large-scale active demonstration (Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 6) of an autonomous waste sorting and segregation platform on an NRS site.  The platform will be able to autonomously sort through nuclear waste and segregate into specific containers.’ The aim of the platform is to remove humans from harm, reduce the hazards associated with sorting and segregation processes and improve utilisation of the waste hierarchy and diversion routes.<br/><br/>The procurement will start with a 3 year off site design, development, and inactive demonstration and move to a <br/>2 year installation and active demonstration phase.  (Phase 2 will start during the 3 year period of Phase 1.  However, there will be a contract break before phase 2 commences)<br/>These two phases will be awarded to a single supplier for £0-£9.5M. <br/><br/>The procurement will be awarded by the NDA. The contract management and project management will be by NRS.<br/><br/>The NDA shall host an engagement event on 18th June 2024 10am – 12:30pm.
