Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services for five projects: 10181356, 10187422, 10185847, 10186282 and 10183729. The work is classified as project-supervision services other than for construction work (CPV 79421100) and falls within the services category. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The requirement covers supervision and oversight of the named projects rather than construction delivery itself. This is relevant to organisations providing project management, programme oversight, governance, monitoring, coordination and related assurance services for research and innovation projects. UKRI is the buying organisation, with the requirement structured around a defined group of five projects.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 20 May 2026 at 17:00. UK Research & Innovation awarded the contract to Prism Nova Limited on 4 June 2026. The awarded value is £7,750. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 December 2026. The procurement was treated as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award covers the five named projects as one requirement, with no separate lot outcomes reported. The result demonstrates that the buyer selected a supplier through the dynamic purchasing system route for this project-supervision service.

This award is commercially useful evidence for SMEs that provide project supervision to research and innovation organisations. A credible competitor would need to oversee several concurrent projects, maintain clear governance and reporting, monitor progress and risks, coordinate stakeholders, and provide reliable management information to the buyer. Experience supervising publicly funded or technically complex projects would help demonstrate fit, particularly where delivery depends on disciplined oversight rather than construction activity. Suppliers should also be able to operate across UK locations and respond efficiently through a dynamic purchasing system call-off. Prism Nova Limited’s selection shows that a small specialist business can satisfy this type of requirement, making relevant project-management capability and proportionate delivery capacity important when comparable work returns.
