Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation commissioned project-supervision services for three projects. The requirement is classified as services and concerns supervision of projects other than construction work. The recorded delivery location is the United Kingdom; no more specific delivery place is identified. The buyer is UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon. The three project references appear in the procurement title, but their subject matter and the supervision tasks are not described further. The award identifies Spark Assessment Services Limited as the selected supplier. This is a project oversight requirement rather than a construction-supervision commission, making it most relevant to providers of project supervision and assessment services able to support UK Research & Innovation’s project portfolio.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Spark Assessment Services Limited. The award was made on 10 September 2026. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. The awarded contract value is £9,288. The route was a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, using a selective procedure. The original tender deadline was 13 August 2026 at 5pm. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No lot-by-lot awards or evaluation criteria are recorded. The work covers three project references, but the award is presented as a single contract with one supplier and one value.

This award shows UK Research & Innovation buying project-supervision services for multiple projects through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. Spark Assessment Services Limited, an SME, was selected, demonstrating that a smaller specialist provider can deliver this type of requirement. Suppliers seeking to compete for comparable work with this buyer would need credible project supervision and assessment capability, and the capacity to support several projects within a single commission. The stated service excludes construction supervision, so relevant experience should concern oversight of non-construction projects. The procurement does not set out specific accreditations, technical qualifications or staffing requirements; the clearest commercial signal is the buyer’s demand for specialist project oversight procured via its dynamic purchasing system.
