In-Service Support for Health Physics Laboratory and Dosimetry Data Management System

The Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Technical Authority (CBRNTA), part of the UK Ministry of Defence, is awarding a contract for combined in-service support (ISS) services for the Health Physics Laboratory (HPL) and Dosimetry Data Management System (DDMS). This contract consolidates two existing contracts into a single agreement with an estimated total value of £1.5 million inclusive of VAT. The initial contract term is two years, with options to extend for up to three additional one-year periods. The contract will be awarded to EntServ UK Limited under section 41 of the Procurement Act 2023. EntServ UK Limited currently provides these services and holds critical intellectual property, including HPL source code and specialist system knowledge required for maintaining the integrated HPL/DDMS capability. A supplier change would create technical incompatibilities and operational constraints, as replacement suppliers would lack the necessary intellectual property rights, source code access, and established technical understanding to maintain system integration and accredited configuration. EntServ UK Limited is not an excluded supplier.
