Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by UK Research & Innovation involves the supervision of projects, excluding construction work, with a focus on services within the United Kingdom. The procurement, classified under CPV code 79421100, was conducted through a selective method, specifically as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The procurement stage has reached the award phase, with the contract awarded to Assentian Limited on 17th November 2025. The contract is valued at £3,150 and will commence on 1st January 2026, concluding on 31st March 2026. Although the tender period ended on 5th November 2025, this process highlights UK Research & Innovation's commitment to fostering project-supervision services.

This tender creates significant opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of providing project supervision services. Businesses specialising in consultancy and management within the non-construction domain, especially those familiar with dynamic purchasing systems, would find this contract suitable for expansion. Being awarded by a prominent buyer like UK Research & Innovation, which is headquartered in Swindon, England, adds considerable value and credibility. Therefore, enterprises looking to grow their portfolio in supervision services should consider similar opportunities with such selective procurement methodologies to enhance business growth.
