## About this tender

This PIN is to inform the supply chain that Sellafield Ltd and Dounreay Site Restoration Limited are seeking improved and/or novel solutions to enable them to reliably and repeatedly position ROVs and associated characterisation equipment in a pond, without use of the stored inventory as a x/y coordination guide, to aid in retrieval of radioactive waste.

This challenge will be administered though the Game Changers programme and advertised on their website during June/July 2021. A challenge statement published on the website will provide a detailed overview of the challenge and Sellafield Ltd's technical requirements along with any constraints and restrictions. An online workshop will be held on the 8th July 2021 where Sellafield and DSRL will further describe the challenge. Details of the workshop will be shared on the Game Changers website.

Interested technology providers should complete and submit a Game Changers application via the Game Changers website [gamechangers.technology](https://www.gamechangers.technology). The challenge is open to any organisation who feel they can meet the technical requirements. The closing date for applications will be 30th July 2021.

Interested organisations should note that the issue of this PIN may not result in a full procurement exercise being conducted. The outcome of the Game Changers challenge will determine whether a full procurement exercise will follow. We would therefore encourage any organisation which has the capability, knowledge and experience in the prevention and/or minimising leaks to respond to this PIN and visit the Game Changers ([gamechangers.technology](https://www.gamechangers.technology/)) website for further information on the Game Changers challenge.

If Sellafield or DRSL progress to a future procurement opportunity for ROV positioning, the learning gathered from the Game Changers technology study may be shared with all potential suppliers, noting that commercially sensitive information will not be included.
