£3.4bn Sellafield infrastructure race delayed to New Year
Abstract
Sellafield aims to replace its Infrastructure Services Alliance with Morgan Sindall and Arup with a new Infrastructure Delivery Partnership. The organisational shake-up will see a new overall strategic partner, supported by three key delivery partners for electrical distribution, utilities, and civils. The Strategic Partner will provide front-end definition and project sequencing services, undertake feasibility studies and initial engineering design. Below the strategic partner, three delivery partners will complete detailed design and all procurement, installation, construction, commissioning and handover activities that form part of delivery. Sellafield Ltd will pay its partner's actual costs monthly on a fully open-book basis. As part of the competition, tenderers will be asked to submit their proposed overhead percentage within a cap of 15% for the Strategic Partner or 6% for the Delivery Partner. Tenderers will be asked to submit proposed profit within the ranges below 5% - 8% for the Strategic Partner and 3% - 6% for each Delivery Partner.
