Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK procured project-supervision services for a project in the United Kingdom, excluding supervision of construction work. The requirement sits within the services category and is described using CPV 79421100, covering project-supervision services other than for construction work. The buying organisation is Innovate UK, a public-sector innovation funding body. The selected service concerns supervision and oversight of project activity rather than construction delivery itself. It is therefore relevant to consultancies and professional services firms that provide project monitoring, coordination, governance or supervisory support for publicly funded projects. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to smaller project-management and consultancy businesses with the capability to deliver this type of specialist oversight.

This procurement has been completed and awarded. Innovate UK used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 10 July 2026 at 17:00. The contract was awarded on 27 July 2026 to SANDHILLS MANAGEMENT CONSULTANCY LIMITED for £4,260. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028. The awarded value and contract period apply to this single award. The procurement was evaluated through the purchasing route used for the dynamic purchasing system call-off. As an awarded procurement, it is not an opportunity to submit a bid for this contract; its outcome records the buyer’s chosen supplier, the requirement purchased and the commercial scale of the appointment.

For a competitor, this award provides a clear example of Innovate UK’s demand for external project-supervision services delivered by an SME. A credible future supplier would need practical capability in supervising or monitoring projects, maintaining oversight of delivery, and providing consultancy support suitable for a public-sector innovation environment. The requirement is distinct from construction supervision, so firms should be able to demonstrate experience of managing or overseeing non-construction projects and communicating effectively with a public buyer. The award also shows that this buyer uses a dynamic purchasing system call-off and that a small consultancy can win work through that route. Businesses with established project-governance processes, relevant delivery experience and the capacity to support Innovate UK projects would be well placed to assess similar requirements.
