What is being bought

A Supplier will be required to undertake the Preliminary and Final Design phase of the ISS sub-system and potential equipment, and process trials prior to delivery to site at Culham Science Centre. The system will undergo a Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) prior to site delivery. Installation, a Site Acceptance Test (SAT) in conjunction with supplier, and integration into the H3AT Tritium Loop will be carried out by the Systems Integrator/Integrated Control System contractor(s). Anticipated system description The Isotope Separation System (ISS) separates a mixture of the six different Q2 (hydrogen) forms into streams containing predominantly H2 (protium), D2 (deuterium) and T2 (tritium) species. Cryo-distillation is the chosen technology. Cryodistillation exploits the small difference in volatility between the isotopes to achieve separation. The quantities of isotopologues of hydrogen – HD, HT and DT are reduced in the system using packed beds of catalyst, known as equilibriators.

Lot details

Lot 1

A Supplier will be required to undertake the Preliminary and Final Design phase of the ISS sub-system and potential equipment, and process trials prior to delivery to site at Culham Science Centre. Upon completion of development trials, the system will undergo a Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) prior to site delivery. Installation, a Site Acceptance Test (SAT) in conjunction with supplier, and integration into the H3AT Tritium Loop will be carried out by the Systems Integrator/Integrated Control System contractor(s). Anticipated system description The Isotope Separation System (ISS) separates a mixture of the six different Q2 (hydrogen) forms into streams containing predominantly H2 (protium), D2 (deuterium) and T2 (tritium) species. Cryo-distillation is the chosen technology. Cryodistillation exploits the small difference in volatility between the isotopes to achieve separation. The quantities of isotopologues of hydrogen – HD, HT and DT are reduced in the system using packed beds of catalyst, known as equilibriators. These are located in the streams between the 4 cryodistillation columns and promote the formation of H2, D2 and T2.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 42. The category anchor is Compressors for refrigerating equipment (42123300); 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 423,0194 median · 51.9 average (1,182 of 3,019 with a bid count)5.9 average (1,276 of 3,019 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.

    "description": "A Supplier will be required to undertake the Preliminary and Final Design phase of the ISS sub-system and potential equipment, and process trials prior to delivery to site at Culham Science Centre. The system will undergo a Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) prior to site delivery. Installation, a Site Acceptance Test (SAT) in conjunction with supplier, and integration into the H3AT Tritium Loop will be carried out by the Systems Integrator/Integrated Control System contractor(s). Anticipated system description The Isotope Separation System (ISS) separates a mixture of the six different Q2 (hydrogen) forms into streams containing predominantly H2 (protium), D2 (deuterium) and T2 (tritium) species. Cryo-distillation is the chosen technology. Cryodistillation exploits the small difference in volatility between the isotopes to achieve separation. The quantities of isotopologues of hydrogen – HD, HT and DT are reduced in the system using packed beds of catalyst, known as equilibriators.",
