NTSP is a seven year framework, with the option of a further three years, that will deliver specialist nuclear technical services valued between £250-million to £400-million to support DIO, Navy Command and other MoD organisations.

The framework will support the Clyde Infrastructure Programme (CIP) and wider Royal Navy and defence requirements. Its primary focus will be on delivering the refurbishment and upgrade of critical infrastructure at HMNB Clyde.

Charles Hoskins, DIO’s Clyde Infrastructure Programme Director, said: "The NTSP is vitally important to the delivery of our major infrastructure programme and wider operations at HMNB Clyde. We welcome all companies from our new NTSP delivery partners to our infrastructure family within the Clyde Community.
