What is being bought

This work package encompasses the engineering capability to progress the concept design produced by the Foundation Engineer (FENG) at the end of RIBA Stage 2 and to continue the development of the design for site works through RIBA Stages 3 (Spatial Planning) and 4 (Technical Design) throughout the entire lifecycle of the Small Modular Reactor (SMR) project through to and inclusive of RIBA Stage 7 (Use). The Engineering Partner will also be required to undertake works associated with any additional RIBA Stages (from RIBA Stage 0 through to RIBA Stage 7) for any emerging scope that arises over the lifecycle of the SMR Project and will be required to support with the ongoing management of design change/control. The Engineering Partner contract is estimated to be valued between £200m - £400m *The positions and timelines presented are based on current information and assumptions. As programme maturity develops and further validation is undertaken, scope, dates, values and sequencing may change.*

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 71. The category anchor is Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services (71000000); 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 714,5694 median · 28.6 average (1,408 of 4,569 with a bid count)3.8 average (1,548 of 4,569 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.
