Amentum (NYSE: AMTM) announced that a joint venture it leads has secured a $112 million contract to provide decommissioning and waste management services at nuclear research sites across four European countries.

The European Commission Joint Research Centre awarded the contract, valued at €95.7 million, to the Amentum-led joint venture. The work will cover sites in Ispra, Italy; Karlsruhe, Germany; Geel, Belgium; and Petten, The Netherlands.

The joint venture includes WSP Italia as a partner, with TUV Rheinland and Protection Solution SRL serving as subcontractors. The scope encompasses decommissioning of research reactors, hot cells, accelerators, laboratories and other infrastructure where radioactive materials have been handled.

The contract spans two years with three potential two-year extensions. Services will include licensing, radioactive waste management, radiation protection, decommissioning and nuclear engineering, worksite management and safety, non-nuclear engineering, facility supervision and quality assurance.

The Joint Research Centre sites have operated for more than 60 years, conducting research in nuclear decommissioning, innovation, safeguards and non-proliferation while supporting European Union policy development.

"Amentum's robust track record of delivering European-funded projects on time and on budget in multiple countries, including prior experience working at JRC Ispra, made us the ideal choice for this contract," said Loren Jones, senior vice president and head of Amentum's Energy & Environment-International business.
