Nuclear Consulting Limited

People and Organisation

A nuclear licensee has to be able to specify, challenge and accept the work done on its behalf. NCL designs organisations and governance, builds intelligent customer capability and develops and assesses competence, so clients can carry those responsibilities themselves.

We help clients keep knowledge as experienced staff retire and leave them able to carry on independently when an assignment ends. Online learning is also available through Atomeris Academy.

Practice Services

Operating Models and Organisational Design

How the organisation is arranged to do the work

We design operating models, organisational structures and management systems, with clear responsibilities and supporting records.

Example

Operating Models and Organisational Design

A structured improvement programme for a large European nuclear utility that returned €18m over four years.

Intelligent Customer and Nuclear Baseline

Being able to specify, challenge and accept what suppliers produce

We develop and assess intelligent customer arrangements, nuclear baselines and supply chain safety oversight for licensees.

Example

Intelligent Customer and Nuclear Baseline

Nuclear baseline development, management of change and intelligent customer arrangements for new build licensees.

Operational Readiness and Performance

Readiness for operation and performance improvement

NCL assesses organisational readiness for operation and supports performance improvement once operations begin. It also investigates recurring safety issues to identify the organisational and working conditions that need to change.

Example

Operational Readiness and Performance

Investigation of recurring safety issues at a legacy plant, followed by changes to the working environment.

Training and Competence

Development tied to live work, with competence evidenced

We develop role-based training, competence assessments and knowledge-transfer arrangements alongside live work. Atomeris Academy adds online learning through the Nuclear Bootcamp and career pathways. Course completion and CPD records document learning, while competence is assessed separately against the requirements of the role.

Example

Training and Competence

Internal training on decommissioning and radioactive waste management for the UK nuclear regulator’s own inspectors. Whole-workforce counterfeit item training for a metals supplier entering the sector.

Nuclear Capability Multiplier

Assessment, development and handover

The Nuclear Capability Multiplier develops an organisation’s nuclear capability through assessment, development and handover, with NCL specialists working alongside the client’s team until it can undertake the agreed responsibilities independently.

Example

Nuclear Capability Multiplier

Licence compliance and safety culture programmes across a Gen III+ new build project, its reactor vendor and Tier 1 partners.
