Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK procured project-supervision services for work outside construction, classified under CPV 79421100. The requirement is a service supporting the oversight and management of a project, rather than construction supervision. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. Innovate UK is the buying organisation. The procurement is categorised as a service and was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The selected supplier, BISKIT LIMITED, is itself recorded as an SME. This indicates that the requirement could be delivered by a relatively small specialist consultancy or project-management business with the capability to supervise projects for a UK public-sector innovation organisation. The procurement relates to one overall service requirement rather than separate lots.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Innovate UK selected BISKIT LIMITED on 17 August 2026 for a contract worth £5,540. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028. It was awarded through a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, rather than through an open standalone tender. The tender submission deadline was 5 August 2026 at 5pm. The requirement was evaluated and awarded as a project-supervision service. The award is active, and the contract value and period apply to the selected supplier. The recorded procurement route shows that suppliers needed to participate in, or be eligible for, the relevant dynamic purchasing system before this call-off.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award is evidence that Innovate UK uses external providers for project-supervision services and that this type of requirement can be delivered by an SME. A credible competitor for comparable work would need a clear capability to supervise and manage projects outside construction, provide structured oversight for a public-sector innovation organisation, and operate reliably across UK delivery requirements. Experience of project governance, monitoring progress, managing risks and reporting to a client would be commercially relevant to this requirement, provided it can be demonstrated in evidence. The procurement route also matters: future competitors would need to understand and qualify for the applicable dynamic purchasing system before pursuing similar call-off opportunities.
