Sellafield Product and Residue Store Retreatment Plant banks first major project contract
A major project contract has recently been awarded on the Sellafield Product and Residue Store Retreatment Plant.
The Sellafield Product and Residue Store Retreatment Plant under construction on the Sellafield site.
A £40 million heating, ventilation and air conditioning contract has been awarded on the Sellafield Product and Residue Store Retreatment Plant.
Balfour Beatty Kilpatrick has been awarded the first Programme and Project Partners major project procurement contract which will enable the start of production, manufacturing, design, installation and testing of a key aspect of the retreatment plant’s main building.
It’s an important step and marks the first time a major project delivered through our Programme and Project Partners has awarded a material contract via its major project procurement framework agreement.
When completed the facility will repackage special nuclear material for long term safe and secure storage and having the right heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems in place is vital.
Richard Milliken, commercial manager for the Sellafield Product and Residue Store Retreatment Plant, said:
This is a key procurement for the Programme and Project Partners as it reflects the essence of the partners model. Collaboration was key.
For the team it has been a long journey involving development, challenges, input by many and much learning from experience.
I believe through a lot of collaboration across Sellafield Product and Residue Store Retreatment Plant Project Team, Programme and Project Partners Services, Sellafield Ltd Intelligent Client and Balfour Beatty Kilpatrick we got there. On this basis I would like to say a big thank you to all involved in this success.
