Informed Solutions and our partner Environmental Resources Management (ERM) are delighted to have been selected by Sellafield Ltd to deliver the new Land Quality Data Management System in support of Sellafield Ltd’s land quality and remediation programme.
Sellafield Ltd is responsible for reprocessing nuclear material, decommissioning facilities, and nuclear waste management including the UK’s largest groundwater and land monitoring programme covering an estimated 13 million cubic metres of land holdings.
The new Land Quality System is based on Informed’s proven and high performing Data Integration and Advanced Analytics Platform, and will replace 7 separate existing systems currently operated by Sellafield Ltd. Some 40 years of archive records will be harmonised into a central, accessible and consistent data asset. Records will also be assigned location coordinates to facilitate a more complete understanding of land quality at the Sellafield Ltd site, including the local geography of site contaminants.
The system will be a critical tool for Sellafield Ltd’s Land Quality Team, and used by them to plan and measure progress towards the goal of land remediation at the Sellafield Ltd site. Fundamental to facilitating Sellafield Ltd’s ‘end state’ objectives for the site, the Land Quality System will improve existing and future land data, and provide a more efficient, consistent, intuitive and reliable site-wide picture. Access to integrated, consistent and complete information will also underpin business decisions driving the wider land remediation programme.
Dr Katherine Eilbeck, Head of the Land Quality Team at Sellafield Ltd commented: “My team is impressed with the understanding demonstrated by Informed and ERM when tendering for this work, by the capabilities of the Data Integration and Advanced Analytics Platform, and by the real world examples of similar assignments they have successfully undertaken. We recognise that we have set ourselves challenging objectives but also know we have picked good innovation and subject matter specialist partners. This is an exciting programme and we are genuinely looking forward to working in close partnership with Informed and ERM, to deliver our new Land Quality System.”
Informed’s Director of Programmes, Justin Hassall, commented: “Sellafield Ltd have the largest concentration of nuclear expertise in Europe and an important responsibility to current and future generations to ensure the continued safety of the Sellafield Ltd site. The Informed team and I recognise that it is a privilege and a major responsibility to be awarded this engagement. We are totally committed to helping Sellafield Ltd achieve their challenging objectives and welcome the invitation to work alongside their specialists; facilitating and assuring, to the highest standard, the integrity of land quality, environmental monitoring and remediation operations.”
