Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK commissioned project-supervision services for a UK-based requirement, classified under CPV 79421100 as project-supervision services other than construction work. The work is a professional service supporting oversight and supervision of a project rather than construction delivery itself. The buying organisation is Innovate UK, based at Polaris House in England. The procurement is categorised as services and relates to Project 10206035. Suppliers whose work centres on project monitoring, coordination, governance, assurance or supervision in a non-construction setting would find the requirement most relevant. The stated delivery country is the United Kingdom, so organisations able to support UK operations and communicate effectively with the buyer are the natural market for this type of requirement.

This procurement has been awarded and is marked complete. Innovate UK used a selective procedure, calling off the requirement from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 12 August 2026 at 17:00. The contract was awarded on 24 August 2026 to ZEC CONSULTANCY LTD, an SME, for £2,400. The awarded contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. The requirement was suitable for SMEs and not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The successful supplier and awarded value apply to the single requirement described, with no separate lots identified. The procurement was evaluated through the dynamic purchasing system call-off route.

Although this contract has already been awarded, it provides a useful benchmark for firms targeting Innovate UK’s project-supervision requirements. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate practical project oversight in a non-construction environment, including monitoring progress, coordinating activity, identifying issues, maintaining clear records and providing assurance to a public-sector client. The requirement was suitable for an SME, indicating that specialist smaller consultancies can be credible providers when they can deliver a focused service without the scale of a major professional-services firm. Experience working with UK public bodies, disciplined reporting, reliable project governance and the capacity to support a defined assignment would strengthen a future proposition. Familiarity with dynamic purchasing system call-offs would also be commercially relevant, as this buyer used that route for the requirement.
