It replaces the current Operation Site Works (OSW) framework that has attained its maximum term.
Sellafield has estimated the value of the IAC framework at $310m over a maximum five-year term.
Jacobs Energy security and technology senior vice president Karen Wiemelt said: “This important win provides continuity for our skilled and dedicated OneAIM team, whose great work on OSW has been recognized by our successful bid for the replacement framework.
“Collaborating with other suppliers and frameworks improves project delivery and helps achieve Sellafield’s purpose of creating a clean and safe environment for future generations.”

Last month, Norway’s Norsk Nukleær Dekommisjonering (NND) had appointed a joint venture between Jacobs and Multiconsult Norge for decommissioning of nuclear facilities.
The initial focus of this framework contract will be on two research locations – the nuclear fuel and materials testing reactor at Halden and the JEEP-II neutron scattering facility at Kjeller – which were closed in 2018 and 2019, respectively.
NND estimates the total value of the six-year multi-award framework at up to $100m.
The scope of the contract includes engineering concept design and planning of new facilities, upgrading current nuclear and non-nuclear facilities and supporting NND with technical documentation, etc.
