Smaller businesses benefit from new portal for nuclear decommissioning opportunities

Introducing the new portal

I am pleased to be able to provide more detail on what NDA’s Chief Executive John Clarke announced at our National supply chain event in November 2016. Back then, John Clarke indicated that NDA would be introducing measures to ensure sub-contract opportunities across our Estate were more visible, particularly to smaller businesses, or Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs).

A new web portal, via the Contract Tender Management (CTM) system, means that businesses will be able to more easily view a wide range of sub-contract opportunities.

Almost 30 major private-sector Tier 2 businesses working in the NDA estate have agreed to trial the scheme, which will advertise opportunities for the Tier 3/4 community. More than 60 per cent of the NDA’s annual £1.7 billion supply chain spend is with 30-40 major businesses or consortia who place many hundreds of sub-contracts for goods and services, usually publicised through a diverse range of electronic and printed formats.

More businesses are expected to join as the scheme gets under way. The initial aim is to publish opportunities worth around £250 million in total.
