- Framework
- An agreement that sets terms for work the buyer may order later, often from several suppliers. The value shown usually covers the whole agreement, not one job.
- Open for bids / closing date
- You must submit by the closing date and time, normally through the buyer's own online portal. Late bids are normally refused.
- Clarification questions
- A deadline for asking the buyer questions about the tender. It is earlier than the closing date.
- Conditions of participation
- What the buyer asks suppliers to show before they can be considered, such as experience, insurance or accreditations.
- Bids are scored on
- How the buyer will compare bids, usually a split between price and quality. A 60/40 split in favour of quality means the cheapest bid will not necessarily win.
- Lots
- A tender can be split into parts. You can often bid for only the lots that suit you.
- Area (ITL)
- The buyer names an official statistical area for where the work is, not a street address. Check the tender documents for the actual sites.
- UK4 and other notice codes
- Official codes for the type of notice. A "tender notice" means bids are being invited.

Description
The Authority is publishing this Contract Award Notice to notify the market of its intention to award a contract, following the completion of an Open Procedure conducted in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023, for the provision of an Approved Dosimetry Service to support compliance with the Ionising Radiations Regulations 2017 (IRR17) and to ensure the continued protection of staff who may be exposed to ionising radiation in the course of their duties.
The service is critical to the Authority's statutory responsibilities as a radiation employer. Under IRR17, the Authority is required to assess radiation risks, monitor occupational exposure where appropriate, maintain dose records, investigate potential overexposures, and ensure that exposures remain As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP) and within the applicable statutory dose limits.
The appointed Supplier will provide personal dosimetry monitoring, dose assessment, dose record management, and associated reporting services to support compliance with regulatory requirements. This includes the provision of services for staff designated as Classified Persons, for whom the Authority is legally required to appoint an Approved Dosimetry Service (ADS) in accordance with IRR17.
