Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services other than construction supervision, classified under CPV 79421100. The requirement supports supervision and oversight of a project rather than construction works themselves. The service is categorised as professional services and is to be delivered in the United Kingdom. The buyer is UK Research & Innovation, based at Polaris House in Swindon. The procurement is relevant to firms providing project supervision, project monitoring, delivery oversight or related management support, particularly those able to work with a UK public research and innovation organisation. The contract was awarded to Futurelink Solutions Ltd, an SME based in Devon.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. UK Research & Innovation used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 17 June 2026 at 5pm. The contract was awarded to Futurelink Solutions Ltd on 29 June 2026 for £4,321, with an active contract period from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2028. The procurement was evaluated through the dynamic purchasing system call-off process. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. It concerns one project-supervision services requirement delivered in the United Kingdom; the award value and contract period apply to that requirement.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates demand from UK Research & Innovation for focused project-supervision support delivered through its dynamic purchasing system. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need practical capability in supervising and monitoring project delivery, maintaining oversight of progress and supporting the buyer’s management of project activity. Experience of working with public sector or research and innovation programmes would help demonstrate understanding of governance, reporting and accountability, although the published requirement does not set out specific qualifications or accreditations. The successful supplier is an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a suitably capable smaller specialist rather than only by a large consultancy.
