Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation commissioned project-supervision services other than construction work for Project 10183375. The requirement falls within professional project management and oversight services, rather than construction delivery itself. Work is to be delivered in the United Kingdom for UKRI, the buying organisation. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that the requirement was structured so an SME could undertake it. The named supplier, Cardycan Ltd, is based in Anglesey and is classified as an SME. The service is associated with supervision of a project, so relevant providers are likely to be project management, programme support or project oversight businesses operating in the UK.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Cardycan Ltd on 13 May 2026. The award value is £2,900. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 April 2027. UKRI used a selective procedure through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, rather than an open standalone tender. The tender submission deadline was 23 April 2026 at 5pm. The procurement was evaluated for a services requirement under the project-supervision category. The award is active and covers the full contract period stated above. There are no lots recorded, so the stated value and dates apply to the requirement as a whole.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates demand from UK Research & Innovation for focused project-supervision support delivered in the UK. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need practical experience overseeing projects, coordinating activity, tracking progress and providing clear management assurance, without presenting itself primarily as a construction contractor. The route to market is significant: suppliers would need to be able to participate in, or secure access to, a dynamic purchasing system and respond to selective call-offs. Smaller project-management and specialist oversight firms are relevant, provided they can deliver the required supervision service reliably for a public-sector research and innovation buyer.
