Nuclear Defence

Where Critical Mission Meets Cutting-Edge Engineering

Nuclear defence isn’t just about building facilities – it’s about constructing the backbone of national security with precision that leaves no room for compromise. At Morson Praxis, we understand that when you’re working at the intersection of defence and nuclear technology, every decision ripples through decades of operational life.

The Challenge Landscape

Working within nuclear defence presents a unique puzzle.

Unlike civilian nuclear installations, military sites operate under different regulatory frameworks—the Nuclear Installations Act 1965 doesn’t apply here, but that doesn’t mean the standards are any less demanding. If anything, they’re more complex.

Government agencies impose stringent requirements that go beyond typical nuclear protocols, creating a regulatory environment that demands both deep expertise and adaptive thinking. It’s where technical excellence meets security imperatives, and where understanding the nuances can make the difference between project success and regulatory gridlock.

Specialist knowledge

Our Nuclear Defence Expertise

We’ve built our understanding through hands-on experience in both defence and nuclear sectors, giving us that rare dual perspective essential for navigating these specialist environments.

Security and Compliance

Because when national security is at stake, “good enough” simply isn’t in the vocabulary.

Licencing and Site Rules

Navigating the complex web of permissions and protocols that govern these critical facilities.

Ageing Infrastructure

Breathing new life into plants and facilities that have served their purpose but need modern solutions for continued operation.

Safety Management

Implementing arrangements that protect both people and national interests.

Nuclear Liabilities & Decommissioning

Planning for tomorrow’s challenges while solving today’s problems.

Environmental Protection

Balancing operational needs with environmental responsibility.


Our Approach:

Digital Engineering That Delivers

Through advanced scanning and data capture, we create secure digital environments where every component exists in precise detail before a single foundation is poured. This means potential clashes are identified and resolved in the virtual world, not during expensive on-site operations.

The result? Co-ordinated designs with exceptional buildability, reduced risk, and the kind of certainty that defence projects demand.

Services That Bridge Vision and Reality

You need visionary thinking backed by unwavering execution.

Whether you’re developing new-build infrastructure, constructing cutting-edge assets, decommissioning existing facilities, or remediating sites, we provide bespoke services tailored to the unique demands of nuclear defence environments.

We’re not just consultants—we’re partners in ensuring that Britain’s nuclear defence capabilities remain robust, secure, and future-ready. Because when the stakes are this high, you need more than expertise.
