Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services other than construction supervision, classified under CPV 79421100. The requirement supports oversight and management of a project rather than the delivery of construction works. Services are to be delivered in the United Kingdom. UK Research & Innovation is the buying organisation, based in Swindon, England. The procurement is categorised as services and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The selected supplier, John Heywood Consulting, is recorded as an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist consultancy with the relevant project-supervision capability.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. UK Research & Innovation selected John Heywood Consulting on 28 May 2026. The awarded value is £13,070, and the contract period runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2028. The tender submission deadline was 18 May 2026 at 5pm. The procurement used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. It was conducted as a single requirement, with no separate awards identified. The award is active. The contract period and value are the same as those stated for the overall tender, giving a clear indication of the scale and duration of the commissioned project-supervision service.

This award is relevant to small specialist consultancies that provide project supervision and related oversight services for UK public-sector research and innovation organisations. A competing supplier would need credible experience of supervising projects, maintaining governance and progress controls, identifying issues, and providing clear reporting to a public-sector client. The requirement demonstrates that UK Research & Innovation uses a dynamic purchasing system to source this type of specialist service, so firms already able to operate through such a purchasing route may be better placed for comparable future requirements. The selected supplier’s SME status also shows that delivery is within the reach of a focused consultancy rather than only a large professional-services provider.
