Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services for projects 10195195 and 10194633. The requirement covers supervision and oversight of projects other than construction work, classified under CPV 79421100, and falls within the services category. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is UK Research & Innovation, based at Polaris House in Swindon, England. The procurement relates to two identified projects and is intended for a supplier able to provide structured project supervision, monitoring and associated oversight across the required activities. It is relevant to project management consultancies and specialist advisory businesses that support publicly funded research, innovation or other complex projects, including small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. UK Research & Innovation used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The contract was awarded to Growthmesh Limited on 10 June 2026 for £4,317. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 January 2027. The tender submission deadline was 5 June 2026 at 17:00. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, while participation was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award is active and covers the stated project-supervision services for projects 10195195 and 10194633. The procurement was evaluated through the dynamic purchasing system call-off process.

Although this contract has been awarded, it provides a useful indication of UK Research & Innovation’s demand for external project-supervision support across identified research or innovation projects. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need demonstrable capability in project oversight, monitoring progress, coordinating stakeholders and maintaining clear delivery controls for publicly funded work. The successful supplier was a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only by a large consultancy. Businesses operating within a dynamic purchasing system, or able to qualify for comparable purchasing routes, would be better placed to respond efficiently when this buyer seeks similar support.
