Framework Description
Nuclear Restoration Services Limited (NRS) runs this DPS for civil construction works supporting the decommissioning of its nuclear sites in Scotland. It covers demolition, waste management, site preparation and infrastructure works, with no lot division. It was advertised under Find a Tender notice 017635-2024 and runs until 31 May 2028. As a DPS, it stays open to new suppliers throughout its term.
Context & Use Case
NRS uses the DPS when decommissioning projects at its Scottish sites need civils packages: taking down structures, handling waste, preparing ground, and building or maintaining access roads and services. Each package is competed among the contractors admitted to the DPS, so firms bid project by project. Work takes place on licensed nuclear sites, so safety and regulatory compliance weigh heavily.
Scope of Services

Who Can Apply
Civil engineering contractors, demolition firms and waste management specialists, including smaller regional firms that can work to nuclear site standards. The DPS is live and open, so suppliers can apply to join at any time while it runs.
Buyer Benefits
NRS can run a competition for each civils package among pre-qualified contractors, which is much faster than a full tender for every job. Because new suppliers can join throughout, the pool stays competitive and can grow to include firms close to its Scottish sites.
