RADMAN Training

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to noncompetitively award a purchase order for RADMAN Training to WMG, located in Peekskill, NY. The agency has determined through market research that WMG is the sole source capable of providing the required technical assistance for this training opportunity. The contract is being processed under FAR 13.106-1(b), which allows for single-source solicitation when the estimated acquisition value is below the simplified acquisition threshold and only one source is identified. The notice was posted on December 19, 2024, with a response due date of January 3, 2025. The noncompetitive purchase order will support NRC inspectors in understanding RADMAN software's functions and operations.

The primary objective of this training is to familiarize NRC inspectors with RADMAN software capabilities, calculations, and analytical features to enhance their ability to evaluate licensee compliance with regulatory requirements for radioactive waste characterization, classification, and shipment. The anticipated period of performance spans from February 15, 2025, to December 14, 2030, providing a comprehensive training engagement. The training will enable inspectors to proficiently complete required inspection procedures and assess the safety and adequacy of nuclear power plants and other NRC licensees. WMG has been identified as the exclusive provider of this specialized technical training, making them the sole eligible contractor for this opportunity. The NRC's strategic approach ensures that inspectors will gain in-depth knowledge of software functions critical to maintaining regulatory oversight in the nuclear industry. The training's focused scope and targeted objectives underscore the agency's commitment to maintaining high standards of nuclear safety and regulatory compliance.
