Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation commissioned project-supervision services for seven projects. The requirement is described only at this broad level, with no project-specific tasks set out. The buyer is UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, and the stated delivery location is the United Kingdom. This is a services procurement concerned with supervising projects rather than construction work. The procurement record identifies the seven projects by reference numbers, but gives no further information about their subject matter or the supervision activities required. The buyer selected Andrew Kimber Coaching, a small business, to provide the services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Andrew Kimber Coaching. The award date was 10 September 2026, and the awarded contract value is £16,500. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 January 2027. The estimated procurement value was also £16,500. The buyer used a selective procedure, making a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 1 September 2026. The opportunity was marked suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No lot structure or evaluation criteria are stated in the available procurement details.

This award provides a specific example of UK Research & Innovation buying project-supervision services for a group of seven projects through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The selected supplier is a small business, showing that this type of requirement was delivered by an SME. A competitor seeking similar work from this buyer would need credible project-supervision capability and the capacity to cover multiple projects within a short contract period. The procurement description does not identify specialist subject knowledge, professional accreditations or particular methods, so the evidence supports a focus on project-supervision experience rather than any narrower technical specialism. Suppliers already able to participate in the relevant dynamic purchasing system would be familiar with the route used for this purchase.
