Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK bought project-supervision services other than construction work, classified under CPV 79421100. The requirement is for project supervision associated with Project 10204425, delivered in the United Kingdom. Innovate UK is the buying organisation, based at Polaris House in England. This is a services procurement rather than a goods or construction contract. The requirement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that the buyer considered the work accessible to businesses of that scale. The appointed supplier, PYRALIS PHARMA LIMITED, is itself recorded as an SME, showing that a smaller specialist business was able to meet the requirement. The opportunity therefore concerns project oversight services for Innovate UK activity, rather than pharmaceutical supply or construction supervision.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Innovate UK used a selective procedure to call off the requirement from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 28 July 2026 at 5pm. The contract was awarded to PYRALIS PHARMA LIMITED on 7 August 2026 for £5,680, and covers the period from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. The awarded value is the same as the tender’s stated value. The selection was made through the dynamic purchasing system call-off route; the published data identifies the service requirement and procedure but does not provide separate scoring or weighting details. There was one recorded award and one supplier, rather than separate awards for multiple lots.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a defined demand from Innovate UK for project-supervision capability delivered through its dynamic purchasing system. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to provide structured oversight of projects, maintain delivery control and communicate effectively with a public-sector buyer. The buyer’s acceptance of an SME supplier indicates that scale alone was not a barrier; a smaller specialist business with relevant project-supervision experience could compete. Businesses serving innovation, research or technical programmes may be well placed where they can show dependable management of project progress, risks, reporting and stakeholder coordination. Experience in pharmaceutical environments is not stated as a requirement, so the central commercial fit is project supervision rather than product supply.
