National Nuclear Laboratory, in short
Who does National Nuclear Laboratory award contracts to?
Across 78 contracts recorded since 2021, National Nuclear Laboratory has used 73 different suppliers. The most frequent are The University Of Manchester (15 contracts), University Of Strathclyde (9 contracts), University Of Bristol (7 contracts).
What does National Nuclear Laboratory buy?
Its most active procurement categories are research and development, industrial machinery, security and defence. Categories are derived from the CPV codes published on each award notice.
When do National Nuclear Laboratory contracts come up for renewal?
5 contracts awarded by National Nuclear Laboratory have an end date within the next 18 months, the earliest on 31 Dec 2026. End dates come from the original award notices, so they are visible well before any re-tender is advertised.
How much does National Nuclear Laboratory spend on contracts?
The median published contract value is £118k, across the 69 contracts that state a value. Published values are not added up here: a framework's value is a ceiling shared by every supplier on it, and the same value is often repeated across lots, so adding them up would overstate what is spent.
How can I be alerted to new National Nuclear Laboratory tenders?
Tender Radar monitors Find a Tender, Contracts Finder, Public Contracts Scotland and Sell2Wales each weekday morning and can score every new National Nuclear Laboratory notice against your organisation's profile, delivering the relevant ones before 9am alongside their contracts approaching renewal.

How these figures are worked out
- The last 12 months: award notices published from 8 November 2025 to 7 November 2026, each contract counted once however many suppliers or rows it has. The same window is used everywhere on this page.
- Most of its current contracts end in the next 12 months: 4 of its 6 contracts with an end date still to come end by 7 November 2027. Shown when that is more than half, with at least 5.
- No award notice in the last 12 months: No award notice published since 8 November 2025 in the notices we hold.
- Most recent award: recorded 27 May 2025 (1 year 5 months ago).
- Values: value figures cover the 69 of 78 contracts where a value was published. Values are never added up: framework ceilings and values repeated across lots would make a total meaningless.
- Since 2021: totals count contracts by award date from January 2021, and suppliers by organisation rather than by spelling.

Figures cover contract award notices published from January 2021 onward, with comprehensive coverage from 2023. Earlier contracts, and any award not published to Find a Tender or Contracts Finder, will not appear. Figures may lag the source portals. Relative dates (such as “in 6 days”) count from 7 November 2026, when this page was built.
