2 Agenda Welcome, Safety and Introductions Nuclear AMRC and Markets Gantry Viewing Nuclear AMRC Capability Offerings CIPS Domestic and House-keeping/Networking Questions and Close (recommendation 4PM) Safety is fundamental to business success Make your business a class-leading on safety

3 Heath Safety & Welcome Health & Safety There are no emergency practice or fire alarm testing activities today. Evacuation use emergency exits and assembly on the main car park to the left of the main entrance clear of the building Safety thought: knowing the procedure appropriate to your task is good. Understanding it is excellent. If in doubt always seek advice and clarification before proceeding. Have an excellent day. Welcome The Nuclear AMRC is delighted to welcome you Safety is fundamental to business success Make your business a class-leading on safety

4 What is an AMRC World-leading cluster of industry-focused manufacturing R&D centres and supporting facilities. Developing new means, methods, tools and techniques to advance manufacturing technology.

5 High Value Manufacturing Catapult The High-Value Manufacturing Catapult is a consortium of 7 world-leading research centres with 350m public & private investment and working with over 160 industrial partners. It will receive grant funding of around 25m per annum

6 Nuclear AMRC: University Partnership Supply Chain Nuclear AMRC (Sheffield) Component/Material Testing in Nuclear Environments Research Developments Research Labs (Manchester) New Nuclear AMRC building with capability to manufacture large items (Pre-production) Distributed research labs with capability to test in nuclear environments. Incorporating proof of concept manufacturing research and analytical facilities

7 The Nuclear AMRC Partnership Established with 30m of UK Government funding ( approx. 5m additional funding also secured from EU, BIS & TSB) Owned by the Universities of Sheffield & Manchester, but run by business on a consortium basis Industrial partners from across the nuclear manufacturing supply chain FOUNDER MEMBERS: SUPPORTED BY:

10 Development on the Advanced Manufacturing Park (AMP), Rotherham/Sheffield AMRC Training Centre DPTC Knowledge Transfer Center AMRC Factory of the Future CTI Composites Extension Nuclear AMRC

11 New Nuclear AMRC Building Moved into 8,000m 2 building in mid- October 2011 Approx. 6,000m 2 of workshop space in 2 large bays, each with 50 tonne crane Clean areas for basic materials characterisation & testing Office and meeting room space for up to 120 staff now at approx. 60 staff

12 Nuclear AMRC Objectives To raise the quality, capability and cost-competitiveness of the UK civil nuclear manufacturing supply chain, to a level of best global practice To assist UK manufacturing companies compete for nuclear contracts worldwide become part of the global supply chains of the reactor vendors and their Tier 1 s To work with consortium members to develop world-leading manufacturing processes and technologies To provide information to potential nuclear manufacturing supply chain companies related to the Quality Requirements and Codes & Standards

13 Nuclear AMRC Work Programmes Business Support Programme Getting companies to market, and developing their capability and cost-competitiveness Manufacturing Process R&D Ensuring capability to compete on cost, quality and time to delivery

14 Nuclear Connections Business Support Nuclear Connections Connecting UK manufacturing businesses to nuclear supply chain opportunities The Process Nuclear Market Buyer Engagement Supplier Identification Supplier Engagement Supplier Development Routes to Market WINNING ORDERS Market overview and industry background Opportunities Nuclear AMRC should focus on Target list of companies with nuclear sector interests An understanding of supplier capability, ambition and potential Capable and competitive (quality, cost and delivery) UK manufacturing companies Supplier understands routes to market and how Nuclear AMRC can support

15 Manufacturing Capability Readiness Levels MCRL* Production Applied R&D Early Research Centre fills the gap in manufacturing readiness, with industrial scale equipment Industrially led activities, with strong membership commitment Strong university/academic connections * MCRL Manufacturing Capability Readiness Level

16 Civil Nuclear Market There are now approx. 440 commercial nuclear power reactors operating in 30 countries, with 377 GWe of total capacity They provide about 14% of the world's electricity There are now approx. 60 new reactors under construction in 14 countries More than 250 reactors planned over next years (see World Nuclear Association website for In Construction, Planned and Proposed reactors) Approx. 1.7 trillion market Data circa 2012 and is being updated

17 New Build Plants at a Glance ABWR Text in this area has been removed to all cells to be blanked

18 UK Nuclear New Build Market EdF Energy plans to build 4 reactors (6.4GWe) at Hinkley Point and Sizewell Horizon Nuclear Power intends to build a minimum of 5.2GWe nuclear and has acquired land at Wylfa and Oldbury NuGen (GDF Suez & Iberdrola JV) intends to build up to circa 3.6GWe nuclear at Moorside near Sellafield

25 Typical Mechanical Nuclear Component Types Pumps Modules Valves Heat Exchangers Pressure Vessels

26 Summary: Key UK Manufacturing (Supplier) Challenges Establishing capability It s been a while! Need for competitiveness For both UK and global markets Skills & workforce development Need for a skilled workforce, with an understanding of nuclear safety culture Nuclear quality requirements Understanding of quality requirements & of relevant Codes & Standards Design and manufacture for 60+ years life Lack of understanding of route(s) to market OEMs, Tier 1s & 2s, UK-based or partnering with overseas suppliers Timing of the Nuclear New Build programme Uncertainty is affecting investment in the supply chain Access to finance Cost of required capital investment may be prohibitive

27 Nuclear AMRC Quality Programme Activities include: Working with Quality Assurance Service Providers to develop & deliver training courses (eg, Quality Requirements, RCC-M and ASME workshops/courses) Provision of expert support to nuclear manufacturing supply chain companies in the areas of Quality and Codes & Standards Categorisation of Nuclear Power Plant systems & components by Quality Requirements

28 Supplier Mapping - Landscape c 800 companies identified Prioritised target list of companies according to timeline, capability and ambition Mapped by region, components and more.

29 Fit for Nuclear Programme Diagnostic On-line questionnaire-based Specific sections define capability in a given area Capability Gap Analysis Possible follow-up site visits/interviews Analysis of information from the Diagnostic used to assess capability gaps (Safety, Quality, Skills, Process, etc.) Action or Improvement Plan Action plans tailored to address the capability gaps Nuclear AMRC will provide or broker capability improvement programmes

30 Assessment Areas Strategy & Leadership Design & Project Management Not included in online assessment People Excellence Process Excellence Company Performance/ Results Health & Safety Culture Quality Management 6 major Assessment areas + Company Performance / Results All sections include Nuclear specific/relevant questions
