    Brief

    The UK Government is seeking experienced financial advisors to conduct independent financial due diligence and commercial analysis on Tata Steel UK's request for additional government funding. The advisors will evaluate the financial viability and commercial merits of Tata Steel's Port Talbot Electric Arc Furnace transformation project to inform the Government's decision-making process. This is an opportunity for qualified financial advisory firms to provide expert analysis that will help assess the company's financial position, project feasibility, and the potential impact of government support. Advisors should have experience in large-scale industrial projects, financial analysis, and working with government departments.
