Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services other than construction work for Project 10183170. The requirement falls within professional project management and oversight services (CPV 79421100) and is categorised as services. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The procurement was managed by UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, for work supporting the organisation’s project activity. The requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. It is a focused professional-services engagement rather than construction delivery, so relevant suppliers are those able to supervise, coordinate and monitor projects, maintain governance and reporting, and provide assurance to the client. The named requirement concerns one project and demonstrates UK Research & Innovation’s use of external project-supervision capability for its programmes and activities.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 23 April 2026 at 5pm. The contract was awarded to FIFY LTD on 7 May 2026 for £6,820. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2028. The award is active. The published requirement had an estimated value of £6,820, matching the awarded value. The process was evaluated as a project-supervision services requirement, with the procurement completed through the dynamic purchasing system route. UK Research & Innovation is the buyer and FIFY LTD is the selected supplier. This outcome records a single supplier award for the requirement, rather than separate awards to multiple suppliers or lots.

This award indicates demand from UK Research & Innovation for external project-supervision expertise within a dynamic purchasing system. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement of this kind would offer practical project management, supervision and coordination, with the ability to monitor delivery, manage risks and dependencies, maintain clear records, and provide concise progress reporting and assurance to a public-sector client. Credibility would come from demonstrable experience overseeing projects rather than delivering construction works, together with reliable governance, stakeholder management and control of milestones and outputs. The opportunity is accessible in scale to an SME, so a focused consultancy or specialist project-management business could compete alongside larger providers. Familiarity with public-sector procedures and call-offs from dynamic purchasing systems would also help a supplier respond efficiently and present evidence in the required format.
