Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation commissioned project-supervision services other than construction work. The requirement is a professional services engagement supporting the supervision and management of a project, rather than construction activity itself. The procurement is classified under CPV 79421100 and falls within the services category. Delivery covers the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is UK Research and Innovation, based in Swindon, England. This is therefore relevant to consultancies and independent project-management providers that supervise publicly funded or research-related projects across the UK, particularly businesses able to provide structured oversight, coordination and reporting for a public-sector client. The requirement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective procedure: a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 17 June 2026 at 5pm, and the contract was awarded on 29 June 2026. Jonathan Lewis Consulting was selected for an awarded value of £14,350. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2029. The tender had an estimated value of £14,350. This was a single services requirement, with the evaluation outcome resulting in an active award. The available procurement details identify the route and financial outcome, but do not set out a separate award weighting or detailed evaluation formula.

This award shows that UK Research and Innovation uses a dynamic purchasing system to obtain project-supervision services and that a small or medium-sized consultancy can win a requirement of this scale. Competitors would need credible capability in project supervision outside construction, with the capacity to provide organised oversight, coordinate project activity and support the buyer through a multi-year service arrangement. Firms with experience of public-sector, research, innovation or similarly structured projects would be well placed to demonstrate relevance, although the published outcome does not identify specific accreditations, staffing levels or technical qualifications. The successful supplier was Jonathan Lewis Consulting, a Kent-based SME, indicating that the requirement was accessible to a specialist consultancy rather than limited to a large national provider.
