When this comes round again

Nuclear Waste Services publishes Research & Development work continuously — 10 notices, roughly one every 67 days. This is a stream to watch, not a cycle to wait for.

62% of Nuclear Waste Services’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →
