Description

Enabling Innovation Framework 5

The EIF 5 Scope is primarily around problem definition and framing, studies, developing functional requirements, preparing business cases and targeted project and task interventions.

In summary the scope of the EIF encompasses:

• Support to problem framing: establishing clarity over needs and priorities and providing technical / digital support;

• Help in establishing project purpose, principles, roles and tasks before the Detail is decided

• Problem definition: help in translating service requirements into clear functional / technical / digital requirements;

• Support to studies;

• Support for problem solving and recovery of stalled projects through enabling services or focussed technical and digital support / solutions;

• Support to establishing correct measures, metrics and targets for success;

• Improving understanding of supply chain capability;

• Supporting challenge to unnecessarily bespoke solutions, application of unnecessary standards and "specialist" requirements through enabling services or focussed technical / digital solutions;

• Support to constructive challenge of ongoing requirements and cost estimates;

• Relationship based: allowing the supply chain to offer up new technologies and innovations, which have not been solicited by a Sellafield Ltd client that may bring significant return on investment.

Sellafield Ltd intends to appoint 10 suppliers under a single lot. The framework agreements will be based on Sellafield standard terms and conditions.
