## About this tender

AWE Plc wishes to establish a Sustainment Delivery Partnership framework in support of the Plutonium Technology Centre (PTC) - a key facility within its Future Infrastructure Portfolio. The SDPs would work as part of an integrated team to plan, design and deliver the sustainment programme in the PTC based on a high-performance culture and best practice.

We have undertaken market engagement prior to this contract notice to gather information from the market on the proposed SDPs. Based on discussions and analysis, we have determined the following SDPs: Programme Partner (x1), Optioneering Partner (x1), Design & Delivery Partners (x2) & Enhanced Asset Operation Partner (x1). Quantity or scope: AWE will award a framework to five partners to deliver four key areas of services:

- Programme Partner (x 1 supplier) will be responsible for working closely with AWE to oversee the supply chain and ensure effective planning, delivery, oversight, and control of work.
- Optioneering Partner (x 1 supplier) will establish and assess AWE's requirements for maintenance and re-kit, develop and document options, and apply rigorous option assessment criteria before developing robust Scope of Works (SOW). The supplier will maintain a close relationship with AWE to improve and standardise processes.
- Design & Delivery Partners (x 2 suppliers): will be responsible for progressing a SOW from concept design through detailed design to installation and commissioning. This will include the production of concept designs, detailed designs and their substantiation, sourcing, manufacturing installation and build as well as production of technical documentation and commissioning of equipment.
- Enhanced Asset Operations Partner (x 1 supplier) will support AWE to carry-out a range of routine and planned maintenance tasks against a rolling schedule of work, to support the maintenance of assets through their lifecycle.

It is envisaged that the framework shall be for a minimum term of 7 years (including an option to extend for a further 1 x 3-year extension at AWE's discretion).
