Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation bought project-supervision services other than construction supervision, classified under CPV 79421100. The requirement supports the oversight and coordination of a project for the buyer, rather than the delivery of construction works. Services are to be delivered in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, England. The procurement was presented as an invitation to tender for project 10196316 and falls within the services category. The opportunity is relevant to consultancies and specialist project-management providers that supervise, coordinate or monitor projects for public-sector or research organisations. It may also suit smaller service businesses, as the procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Perceptive Change Limited. The award was made on 25 June 2026, for £6,370 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 March 2030. It was conducted as a selective procedure and was a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 11 June 2026 at 5pm. The tender had an estimated value of £6,370. The published outcome records one active award to Perceptive Change Limited, with the same value and contract period. The contracting process was managed for UK Research & Innovation, and the requirement covered project-supervision services delivered in the United Kingdom.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award is a clear indication that UK Research & Innovation uses a dynamic purchasing system to source project-supervision support. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need a service offering focused on supervising, coordinating and monitoring projects, with the ability to provide structured oversight for a public research and innovation organisation. The modest contract scale makes this relevant to smaller consultancies as well as larger project-management providers. Firms should be able to demonstrate practical project-supervision capability, reliable management processes and an understanding of public-sector delivery requirements. Familiarity with dynamic purchasing system call-offs would also be commercially useful.
