Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services for four projects. The work falls within project supervision other than construction, covering the oversight and coordination of project activity rather than construction delivery itself. It is a services contract to be delivered in the United Kingdom. The buyer is UK Research & Innovation, based at Polaris House in Swindon. The requirement is relevant to organisations providing professional project supervision, monitoring and coordination services for publicly funded research and innovation projects. The procurement is identified under CPV 79421100. The opportunity was classed as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that a specialist SME could be an appropriate supplier for this type of requirement.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. UK Research & Innovation selected Assentian Limited, an SME, on 29 May 2026. The awarded contract value is £9,600. The contract runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027. The tender used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, rather than a standalone open competition. Bids were due by 20 May 2026 at 5pm. The award covers the project-supervision services for the four projects as one requirement. The buyer’s stated suitability assessment marked the work as suitable for SMEs and not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This award indicates demand from UK Research & Innovation for specialist oversight of several projects through a dynamic purchasing system. Businesses well placed for a future requirement would be able to supervise and monitor multiple projects, coordinate delivery activity, maintain reliable reporting and provide clear assurance to a public-sector research and innovation buyer. A credible supplier would need practical project-management capability, disciplined administration and the capacity to manage several workstreams without losing consistency. Experience of working with publicly funded, research or innovation-focused projects would help demonstrate understanding of governance, reporting and stakeholder coordination. The requirement is suitable for an SME, so a focused specialist provider could compete without needing the scale of a major construction or professional-services group.
