What is being bought

Published requirement description

The UK Atomic Energy Authority has the requirement for Incineration of Radioactive Waste. The authority uses and will continue to use a variety of packaging types for its solid and liquid incinerable waste, including 200ltr steel drums or fibre kegs as well as plastic packages of varying volumes (20l up to 1000L IBCs as appropriate). Where dangerous goods, either class 7 or otherwise require disposal, the organisations qualified and appointed DGSAs (Dangerous Goods Safety Advisors) will review and approve packaging choices.

Precise information on deadline(s) for review procedures:

Such additional information should be sought from the contact named in this notice.

If an appeal regarding the award of a contract has not been successfully resolved, the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015 No. 102) provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court (England, Wales and Northern Ireland).

Any such action must be brought promptly.
