PIN - DIVERTOR REMOVAL TOOL DEVELOPMENT
What is being bought
UKAEA is entering a multi-year decommissioning programme of Joint European Torus experimental fusion device at the end of 2023. The intend is for the inside of the vessel to be taken apart using existing remote-handling capabilities. One of the key components that need to be cut are the Divertor Coils, which are located inside of the tokamak. The part provides cutting challenges because of requirements to cut it ‘cold’, ‘dry’, the need to deploy it in a geometrically restricted space, and the fact it will be operated by robotic systems. UKAEA will issue a contract through a competitive tender to develop a “Divertor Removal Tool”. The Contractor will undertake a full design, prototyping, and testing cycle as outlined in section .
Categories
Comparable-procurement analytics
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 71. The category anchor is Mechanical and electrical engineering services (71334000); 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 set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 71 | 10,116 | 5 median · 30 average (4,041 of 10,116 with a bid count) | 4.1 average (4,444 of 10,116 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 75 | 4.5 median · 59.5 average (12 of 75 with a bid count) | 3.5 average (15 of 75 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.
