Description

Lot 1 - Independent, expert, global analysis of the relative economic value of the opportunities associated with the technology development (and a selection of critical materials where they may offer opportunities for sourcing or processing in the UK) demand created by the STEP Prototype. Taking each of the technologies, or a sub-set selected for their economic value potential, deliver an understanding of the nature of this commercial potential and the barriers and opportunities open to STEP in stimulating or attracting it to the UK economy. Lot 2 - UK Industrial Fusion Solutions (UKIFS) seeks to appoint a highly capable and experienced supplier to deliver a strategic global supply chain analysis that is essential to the successful commercial delivery of the STEP Prototype Fusion Plant. This contract (Lot 2 of the procurement) will support UKIFS in identifying, evaluating, and prioritising opportunities across the global supply base for STEP's technology needs. The outcome must be a fully informed, practical, and prioritised view of where and how the STEP programme can extract value and benefit from existing supply chains, and where and how it should stimulate capability development, attract inward investment or foster new industrial partnerships to enable long-term delivery success.
