Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services other than construction work, classified under CPV 79421100. The requirement supports project oversight and supervision across the United Kingdom, including England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The buying organisation is UK Research & Innovation. The procurement is categorised as a service and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The recorded requirement covers UK-wide delivery rather than a single named site or locality, so relevant suppliers should be able to provide project-supervision support across the required national geography. The opportunity concerns supervision of projects, not construction works themselves.

The 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 contract was awarded to A2F Associates Limited on 17 June 2026 for £10,745. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2029. The tender submission deadline was 10 June 2026 at 5pm. The recorded award is active. The procurement was evaluated through the purchasing route and resulted in one recorded supplier award; no separate lots or additional awarded suppliers are identified. The buyer’s stated suitability assessment marked the requirement as suitable for SMEs.

This award provides a clear indicator of UK Research & Innovation’s demand for externally delivered project-supervision services across the UK. A credible future competitor would need to supervise projects reliably across a national delivery footprint and provide the organisational capacity to support the buyer’s requirements over a multi-year service period. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist business rather than only by a large corporate provider. Relevant firms should therefore be able to demonstrate practical project-supervision capability, dependable delivery arrangements and sufficient capacity for UK-wide work, while staying focused on project oversight rather than construction delivery.
