Description
The software is an upgrade for existing software which is for the approved Nuclear Accountancy System that UKAEA are required to use for the legal reporting of nuclear material holdings to the Office for Nuclear Regulation under The Nuclear Safeguards (EU Exit) Regulations 2019. If UKAEA are unable to report our holdings because the current software becomes incompatible, then it will put the Authority in breach of its legal obligations. All values are for the three year term and include VAT. This is an award notice only and not a call to competition.
