Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services, excluding construction supervision, for delivery in the United Kingdom. The requirement is associated with Project 10186112 and covers professional oversight and coordination of project activity rather than construction works themselves. It sits within the services category and is relevant to organisations providing project management, supervision, monitoring or related delivery-assurance support. The buyer is UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, England. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to smaller specialist consultancies as well as larger project-supervision providers with the capability to support UK public-sector research and innovation projects.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. UK Research & Innovation used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 23 April 2026 at 17:00. FIFY LTD was awarded the contract on 1 May 2025 for £4,300, with an active contract running from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027. The recorded tender value is also £4,300. The opportunity was treated as a single requirement for project-supervision services. The available procurement information identifies the service category and purchasing route, while the award record confirms the selected supplier and the contracted period. No separate lots or additional awards are recorded.

This award provides a clear indication that UK Research & Innovation buys focused project-supervision support through its dynamic purchasing system, at a modest single-project scale. A credible competitor for comparable work would need practical experience supervising or coordinating projects, monitoring delivery, maintaining clear records and reporting progress to a public-sector client. The requirement is particularly relevant to small and medium-sized specialist consultancies, which were identified as suitable for the procurement. Providers with experience in research, innovation or other complex project environments may be well placed to demonstrate relevant understanding, provided they can deliver structured oversight and assurance across the United Kingdom.
