Note to Bidders
The NDA recognises that there is a broad range of information contained on this website, which bidders involved in any of the competitions being run by the NDA may wish to refer to.
Some of this is legacy information which addresses generic matters and bidders should note that the NDA’s approach may have been altered or developed specifically in the context of any given competition.
Whenever considering whether or not to utilise such information in developing an approach or proposal for the purposes of a competition, bidders should check its validity with the appropriate Competition Team prior to such use.

Competition
Why run competitions for the NDA sites?
Competition is central to our Strategy.
We run competitions as part of our statutory duties to
- secure value for money;
- promote competition;
- promote best practice; and
- meet our legal duties under the European Procurement Regulations and Energy Act 2004
The competition will drive:
1 Value for Money
By
- facilitating broad participation;
- seeking to transfer risk from the public to the private sector as appropriate; and
- focusing on longer term solutions.
2 Innovation
By
- promoting fresh approaches to existing challenges;
- seeking solutions in the supply chain; and
- focusing on outputs, rather than process.
3 Market Development
By
- predictable work flow;
- being open to new ideas and solutions; and
- developing a competitive market.
