The 2024 workshop will address the latest challenges related to supply chain oversight practices, and will examine potential risks that the nuclear industry will need to consider to ensure safe and reliable nuclear operations.

The workshop will be structured around the following four sessions which will include keynote speeches from industry leaders and insights from relevant high-risk industries:

1. Session 1: Supply chain management will focus on the challenges associated with geopolitical developments and the COVID-19 pandemic, and will examine how the industry and regulators have adapted to mitigate the current and future risks.
2. Session 2: New challenges related to small modular reactors (SMRs) will consider how the industry and regulators are addressing the supply chain management opportunities and risks associated with SMRs.
3. Session 3: Quality delivery will focus on the impact of advanced manufacturing and commercial grade procurement arrangements in the management systems of licensees and vendors.
4. Session 4: Organisation culture will explore how the development of an appropriate organisational culture can support safe and reliable delivery and therefore operations, and will discuss the importance of nuclear safety culture within licensees.
