What is being bought

The Spherical Tokamak for Energy Production (STEP) is differentiated from other fusion tokamaks by the intent to utilise re-mountable joints for its magnet coils to facilitate ease of maintenance and commercial viability. This requirement is to provide a cryogenic test environment that is a representative of the expected operating environment of STEP and to enable UKAEA to test and develop re-mountable joints, in addition to other components. UKAEA wishes to appoint a Supplier for the Design, build, supply and installation of Cryostat with Superconducting Magnet, Test Sample current Leads and Variable Temperature Insert This includes: • Cryostat, • Integrated superconducting magnet its cryogenic current leads, • dedicated power supply for magnet, • The Unit Under Test (UUT) cryogenic current leads and a VTI This is fully detailed in Appendix 1 - Scope

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 31. The category anchor is Magnets (31630000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 312,7085 median · 49.4 average (954 of 2,708 with a bid count)5.7 average (1,127 of 2,708 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
