Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services, classified as services other than supervision of construction. The requirement is described only as project 83039911, so the specific project activities and outputs are not set out. The buyer is UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, and delivery is stated to be in the United Kingdom. This is a specialist professional-services requirement rather than a purchase of goods or construction work. The procurement record identifies a single service item and gives no further breakdown of tasks, locations or deliverables, so its relevance is chiefly to providers of project supervision services able to support UK Research & Innovation.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Dr Don Cardy, a supplier recorded as an SME. The award was made on 21 April 2026. The awarded contract value is £6,800, with a contract period from 1 May 2026 to 31 January 2029. The requirement was run as a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 10 April 2026 at 17:00. The evaluation criteria are not stated in the available procurement details. The stated SME suitability indicates that small and medium-sized businesses could take part. There is one award and one supplier; no lot structure is recorded.

This award shows UK Research & Innovation buying project-supervision services through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, with the requirement fulfilled by an individual SME supplier. A competitor for a comparable requirement would need credible project-supervision capability and the capacity to deliver a focused professional-services assignment for a UK public research and innovation buyer. The description does not identify a specialist sector, technical method, accreditation or particular project-management qualification, so the evidence here points to the service type and buyer rather than a narrower technical specialism. For businesses already placed to provide project supervision, the award is useful evidence of a modest, individually delivered requirement; smaller providers may be well suited to this kind of assignment.
