Provision of a Technical Seminar on High Temperature Gas Reactor (HTGR) Technology

ONR selected one of the Technical Support Contracts from its ONR Technical Support Framework - Lot 2 to be awarded this contract via direct award. ONR's requirements relating to delivery of a seminar on high temperature gas cooled reactor (HTGR) technologies, based on the seminar developed by Altran in 2018-19. The previous seminar was delivered face-to-face as a 3-day course/ event in February 2019 and provided valuable information to inspectors working on the Advanced Nuclear Technologies (ANT) project. The ANT project currently has a need to skill up new team members and a key mitigation to the long term impact of COVID-19 is enabling ONR staff to access seminars and training flexibly and remotely. This involves, for example, allowing participants to interact with the seminar content at a time of their choosing, or in multiple short sessions, making use of the ONR Academy platform etc. With the above context in mind, this specification covers the updating of seminar materials in line with ONR requirements and providing a sample video recording (Stage 1), the delivery of the complete seminar as video recordings / voice over the presentations (Stage 2) and a Questions & Answers (Q&A) session (stage 3) to take place via video /teleconference.
