Radiological Survey of MRC Toxicology Unit in Leicester

About

UK Shared Business Services Limited awarded a contract to Aurora Health Physics Services Limited for a radiological survey of the Medical Research Council's Toxicology Unit in Leicester.

The survey was required before the unit's transfer from the University of Leicester to the University of Cambridge, to verify that radiation levels had not increased since the last survey in 2018.

Aurora Health was the only option due to being the current Radiation Protection Advisor and because the licence for radiation work needed to be surrendered prior to vacation, with an agreement requiring the same company that completed the 2018 survey.

The single sourcing action was approved under Regulation 32 (2) (b) – competition is absent for technical reasons.

The contract value was AUD 32,971.
