What is being bought

A high-performance plasma boundary region is key to the success of STEP. However, a confined plasma region with an edge transport barrier (ETB) close to the separatrix which, owing to the steep gradients, is typically generating type-I ELMs. Type-I ELMs will not be sustainable in a reactor relevant device with high pedestal pressures. Current high performance regimes have been developed that either have no ELMs or only small instabilities but so far no or only very limited predictive capability exists for these regimes. Development of no ELM regimes are of particular interest to the STEP team and are likely to be necessary to deliver the required STEP performance regimes. UKAEA are looking for expertise in pedestal development modelling for: Support in modelling and assessing QH-mode operation for STEP , Support in modelling RMP ELM suppression, Support in the development of suitable reduced models to capture the essence of no-ELM or small ELM regimes in an integrated way.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 73. The category anchor is Research services (73110000); 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 733,0453 median · 26.7 average (1,087 of 3,045 with a bid count)2.5 average (1,228 of 3,045 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.
