Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK commissioned project-supervision services, excluding construction supervision, for Project 10199264. The requirement is classified under CPV 79421100 and falls within the services category. Delivery is in the United Kingdom, supporting Innovate UK’s need for oversight and coordination of the project during its contract term. This is a focused professional-services requirement rather than a construction delivery contract: relevant firms are those providing project monitoring, supervision, governance or related delivery support. The named public-sector buyer is Innovate UK, part of UK Research and Innovation. The awarded supplier is a consultancy, indicating that the requirement is suitable for a specialist professional-services provider rather than a product manufacturer or construction contractor.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective process using a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. Bids closed on 1 July 2026 at 5pm. The contract was awarded on 29 July 2026 to Philip Henchoz trading as Bluprint Consultancy for £3,510. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028. Innovate UK identified the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active and covers the full project-supervision requirement. The published award outcome confirms a single supplier and a single contract value; the value should therefore be understood as the awarded amount for this requirement, rather than an estimate across multiple lots or suppliers.

This award shows that Innovate UK uses a dynamic purchasing system to source specialist project-supervision support through selective call-offs. A credible future competitor would need to demonstrate practical capability in supervising and monitoring projects, maintaining delivery oversight, identifying risks, coordinating stakeholders and producing clear progress information for a public-sector client. The small contract scale and SME suitability indicate that the requirement can be accessible to a focused consultancy with proportionate resources, rather than only to a large professional-services firm. Relevant experience with governance, assurance, reporting and managing project delivery would strengthen a supplier’s position. Firms should also be able to work across the United Kingdom and operate effectively within the structured requirements of a public-sector purchasing system.
