In plain English

The UK Atomic Energy Authority wants a digital tool to record and track safety hazards, the controls that reduce them, the evidence behind those controls, and the remaining risk. This is the first (alpha) stage of a project for its LIBRTI programme, and the tool is meant to give a clear, traceable view for safety decisions, design work and briefings to senior staff. The term "golden thread" means a single, reliable record that links each hazard to its controls and evidence from start to finish.

What the buyer wants

• Design and build an alpha-stage software tool that records hazards, mitigations, supporting evidence, mitigation maturity and residual risk in a structured and traceable way • Provide a concise summary view for senior stakeholders alongside the detailed records that engineers and safety staff need • Work with UKAEA to test the alpha tool with users and report on how well it supports the golden thread for safety decisions

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

Most small businesses would be excluded if they cannot show prior experience delivering software for safety-critical or regulated organisations, since the buyer will likely expect understanding of hazard and safety case concepts, not just general software skills.

How to bid

This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
