Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation commissioned project-supervision services for projects 10203431 and 10202863. The requirement is for supervision of projects rather than construction work itself. UK Research & Innovation is the buyer, based in Swindon, England, and the item is recorded for delivery in the United Kingdom. The procurement is categorised as a service and is described under CPV 79421100. The project titles do not provide further detail on the subject matter or activities to be supervised, so the defined scope is project-supervision services for these two projects.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to DKT Consultants Ltd, an SME. The award was made on 22 July 2026 for £4,900. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2029. The estimated tender value was also £4,900. The buyer used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 15 July 2026 at 17:00. The published information identifies one service requirement, rather than separate lots. UK Research & Innovation marked the opportunity as suitable for SMEs and not suitable for voluntary, community or social enterprises. No evaluation criteria are stated in the available procurement details.

This award confirms demand from UK Research & Innovation for project-supervision services covering two projects, with delivery across the United Kingdom. The selected supplier, DKT Consultants Ltd, is an SME, and the buyer marked the requirement as suitable for SMEs; this indicates that a smaller specialist consultancy can be a credible supplier for work of this type. A competitor would need to demonstrate that it can supervise projects effectively and deliver the required services over a multi-year contract. The procurement was placed as a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, so relevant suppliers should be positioned to compete through that route when this buyer next seeks comparable project-supervision support.
