Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation commissioned project-supervision services for Project 10202806. The work is classified as project supervision outside construction, and is a services requirement. The procurement data identifies the delivery country as the United Kingdom but does not name a more specific location. The project title and description do not provide further detail on the activities to be supervised, so the defined scope is limited to project-supervision services. UK Research & Innovation is the buyer. This requirement shows the organisation’s use of external project supervision for a research and innovation project; suppliers whose work focuses on supervising projects rather than construction delivery are the closest fit.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. UK Research & Innovation used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The contract was awarded to Futurelink Solutions Ltd on 24 September 2026, for £3,231. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 December 2027. The submission deadline was 15 September 2026 at 5pm. The tender was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No lots or evaluation criteria are recorded in the procurement details, so the published outcome establishes the selected supplier and award value, but does not set out how bids were scored or compared. The work is a single project-supervision requirement rather than construction work.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates a small-scale project-supervision purchase by UK Research & Innovation through a call-off from its dynamic purchasing system. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to show it can supervise a defined project effectively and deliver the service within a modest contract scope. The selected supplier, Futurelink Solutions Ltd, is identified as an SME, indicating that a smaller business was able to secure this work. The opportunity is most relevant to firms experienced in project oversight for research and innovation activity, rather than construction supervision or general project delivery. The award does not identify specific professional accreditations, staffing levels, technical methods or performance requirements, so the evidence of supplier fit is confined to the service type and the successful SME’s selection.
