The Dounreay Wet Silo contains solids and sludges stored under water in a below ground vault, split into 2 hydraulically linked compartments. The volume of liquor is estimated to be between 150m3 – 200m3. NRS Dounreay is investigating an option to provide a modular liquor treatment capability using an Ion Exchange process. This notice provides advanced information for the procurement of a proposed Feasibility Study consisting of the following aspects: Provide consultation and support to Silo liquor sampling. Use analytical data to develop a suitable ion exchange treatment process. Perform (or direct) inactive and active liquor IX processing trials to underpin a ‘modular’ type treatment plant design. Produce a feasibility report recording the development and proposals for the treatment plant, including an outline concept of the plant.

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 71. The category anchor is Technical services (71356000); 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 | 7,503 | 4 median · 30.4 average (2,813 of 7,503 with a bid count) | 4.1 average (3,110 of 7,503 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 13 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Similar published value (0.5×–2×) | 474 | 3 median · 3.4 average (5 of 474 with a bid count) | 1 average (5 of 474 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.
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.
No planning milestones published.
No linked framework, prior procurement or reprocurement published.
Diagnostic view. “Not published” means this current release does not provide a value.
