Operational Procurement & Transition Support

In 2022, UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) engaged 4C Associates via the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) Management Consultancy Framework 3 (RM6187).

Following the establishment of UK Industrial Fusion Solutions Ltd (UKIFS) as a separate legal entity in 2023, the contract was novated to UKIFS to ensure continuity of programme delivery.

Since inception, 4C Associates have provided embedded consultancy resource across multiple functional areas within UKIFS, including Commercial, HR, Transformation and Operations.

Importantly, 4C currently manages and delivers the majority of UKIFS' transactional procurement activity. This capability underpins day-to-day operational delivery across IPTs and supports compliance with UK public procurement regulations and internal governance controls.

The CCS Management Consultancy Framework 3 (RM6187) has now expired and has been replaced by CCS Management Consultancy Framework 4 (RM6309).

UKIFS is therefore seeking approval to undertake a 12-month Direct Award under CCS Management Consultancy Framework 4 (RM6309) to 4C Associates in order to:

• Ensure continuity of critical procurement and business operations
• Mitigate delivery and compliance risk
• Maintain organisational capability whilst future commercial operating model options are assessed

Failure to secure continuity would present fundamental operational and programme delivery risk across multiple functions.
