What is being bought

Nuclear Restoration Services (NRS) Limited is seeking to establish a maximum of 7 Framework Agreements for the provision of Technical and Professional Support Services required to support decommissioning activities. The duration of the Framework Agreement will be a maximum of 4 years (2+1+1) and should commence in June 2027. Any extension to the initial two year period will be based upon the continued requirement of the Framework Agreement and the performance of the individual Consultants. The estimated cumulative value of call-off contracts that may be awarded through the Framework Agreement over its duration is £45M however, NRS Limited does not commit to any guarantee of any volume of work or any specific projects being awarded by call-off contracts via this Framework Agreement.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 71. The category anchor is Environmental engineering consultancy services (71313000); 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.

“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.
