    "description": "Great British Nuclear is aiming to procure up to two OEs as part of its Small Modular Reactor (SMR) programme.\nThe OE will provide essential independent assurance to the Intelligent Customer and Intelligent Client for the relevant SMR project. This will support the deployment of first-of-a-kind nuclear technology in the UK and facilitate GBN\u0027s goal of reaching a Final Investment Decision(s) for up to two SMR projects.\u202fIn particular, the OE will act as a \u0027client friend\u0027 to the Intelligent Customer and Intelligent Client and provide competent resource to undertake specification, oversight, audit, review and advice for decisions relating to design, scope, budget, risk, delivery and contract compliance.\u202f It will also play the role of subject matter expert to deliver independent technical and delivery Line of Defence 2 assurance on major design and build contracts.\u202f\nEach tenderer will be expected to be able to evidence how it will provide all of the capabilities outlined in the Technical ability section of the questions relating to the conditions of participation.\nThe total contract value of \u00a3600m stated in this notice assumes that GBN will award two OE contracts (one for each planned SMR project), each with a total contract value of up to \u00a3300m. The actual value will depend on a number of factors. GBN reserves the right not to proceed with two SMR projects.\nThe duration of the OE contract(s) is not yet confirmed. This notice envisages a 14-year term, but please note that GBN will set a completion date once the outcome of the SMR Technology Partner procurement is known.\nAll documentation can be found on Jaggaer. All communications regarding the procurement will be held via Jaggaer. All responses will be submitted via Jaggaer.\nhttps://beisgroup.ukp.app.jaggaer.com/",

The PSQ will cover topics including, but not limited to, conflicts of interest, economic and financial standing and the tenderer\u0027s ability to provide the technical and programme capabilities listed later in this notice. The capabilities set out in the technical ability conditions of participation section below can be delivered in various ways, including (but not limited to) by a tenderer and its supply chain, a joint venture, a special purpose vehicle or a consortium. Please note that while GBN considers this list of capabilities to be comprehensive, it reserves the right to change them (and any other information provided in this notice) by the time of launching the OE procurement.\nIf the response submitted by a tenderer as part of the first stage of the procurement satisfies all the relevant conditions, the tenderer will be invited to submit a tender as part of the second stage of the procurement. GBN will then assess the tenderer\u0027s proposals against questions covering Technical, Commercial and Social Value criteria. Please note that GBN reserves the right to refine its award criteria during the procurement process.\nAll documentation can be found on Jaggaer.
