PPP brings together industry leaders to help Sellafield Ltd deliver one of the country’s largest portfolios of complex major projects, creating facilities that support the site’s decommissioning activities.<\/p>\n

Since mobilising in 2019, the Programme and Project Partners (PPP) has awarded more than \u00a33 billion in contracts – and are now working with around 200 suppliers from across the UK, with 40% based in the North-West region, and 49% of its suppliers are SMEs.<\/p>\n

Our latest Supplier Spotlight features our supply partner, Bendalls Engineering, who has a long and proud history with Sellafield Ltd.<\/p>\n

Bendalls are based in Carlisle, just 50 miles from the Sellafield site, and are producing tanks, vessels and instrumentation that will be vital components for our major projects, including the SIXEP Continuity Plant (SCP).<\/p>\n

They are also playing their part in leaving a lasting legacy in the community by developing their Skills Academy.<\/p>\n

In partnership with Lakes College, the Skills Academy aims to strengthen and retain key skills through bespoke apprenticeships to grow and retain Cumbria’s manufacturing workforce and capability.<\/p>\n

Watch the video, by clicking here<\/a>, to learn more about Bendalls Engineering, their work, and how their Skills Academy is building critical skills in the West Cumbrian area.<\/p>\n
