## Description

ONR is seeking to engage one of the Technical Support Contractors \(TSC\) appointed on Lot 2 of its Technical Support Framework\. The TSC is asked to provide independent advice to ONR on various chemistry-related technical topics which form part of the scope of ONR's Step 3 assessment and to undertake a review/sample assessment of a selection of the RP's safety case submissions\. The overall aim of the work is to ensure ONR's regulatory scrutiny, from a chemistry perspective, of the UK HPR1000 design, remains appropriately targeted and proportionate\. The scope of work required to achieve this can therefore be broadly split into two discrete work packages: • PART 1: Provide ONR with independent ad-hoc advice \(and appropriate access to sources of relevant good practice\) on chemistry-related topics; and • PART 2: Review/assessment of relevant aspects of the UK HPR1000 generic design/safety case\.
