Tender description
Fusion is widely hoped to play a major role in energy supply in the future, and this provides both a major opportunity and a powerful motivation for the research and development community. Given the recent development in the field and the continuing technical challenges, UKAEA now wishes to understand more clearly how deployment might look and whether and how it might change with different fusion concepts and technologies. It is hoped that the project will increase the knowledge of fusion within the expert community and bring other benefits there.

About the buyer
The UK Atomic Energy Authority is the central government body behind the UK's fusion energy programmes and tenders every opportunity above a low-value threshold. Opportunities and notices are published on the Central Digital Platform, also known as Find a Tender. Bidders access all tender documents through EU Supply, the authority's centralised platform. Much of this procurement flows through government frameworks, including the Crown Commercial Service. A quarterly procurement pipeline gives visibility of larger forthcoming opportunities. Two published charters, on the supply chain and on social value, set out the authority's approach to its suppliers.
Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.
Over the past 5 years, most of the UK Atomic Energy Authority's contract awards have been in IT services, software and information systems and industrial machinery.
