Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation procured project-supervision services for three projects, identified as 10187139, 10185005 and 10186428. The work sits within the services category and covers project supervision other than construction work. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is UK Research and Innovation, based at Polaris House in Swindon, England. This requirement is relevant to businesses that provide professional project oversight, coordination and supervision services for research, innovation or other public-sector projects. The procurement concerns service delivery rather than construction works, materials or equipment. Its scope is defined at a high level around supervising the identified projects, so suppliers should examine the underlying requirements before judging the detailed operational fit.

The procurement has been completed and was awarded to S L S Darling Limited. The award date was 5 May 2026. The awarded value is £14,395 including the published currency, and the contract runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2028. The original tender deadline was 23 April 2026 at 5pm. UK Research and Innovation used a selective procedure, specifically a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The award was active. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Evaluation details are not set out beyond the selected procedure and the project-supervision service classification. One supplier received the award, with no separate lot awards reported.

This award provides a clear example of UK Research and Innovation buying project-supervision support for several identified projects through its dynamic purchasing system. Businesses that could be credible for comparable work should be able to supervise projects in a structured public-sector environment, coordinate delivery across multiple projects and provide reliable reporting and oversight. The requirement is explicitly suitable for SMEs, making it relevant to smaller specialist consultancies as well as larger providers. Experience of research, innovation or publicly funded project environments would help demonstrate relevance, while the successful supplier's appointment shows that a focused project-supervision business can meet this buyer's requirement. Suppliers should monitor this buyer's use of the same purchasing route and maintain evidence of comparable delivery.
