Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK procured project-supervision services other than construction work, classified under CPV 79421100. The requirement is a professional services assignment supporting supervision of a project rather than construction activity itself. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so it was intended to be accessible to businesses with the relevant specialist capability and capacity at SME scale. Innovate UK was the buying organisation. The selected supplier, CITED LIMITED, is also recorded as an SME. The requirement is specific to project supervision services, making it most relevant to consultancies and professional services firms that oversee project progress, coordination and delivery for public sector clients.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 11 August 2026 at 17:00. Innovate UK awarded the contract to CITED LIMITED on 24 August 2026 for £2,210. The contract period runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 July 2027. The procurement was for services, with the stated classification covering project-supervision services other than construction work. The award is active. The recorded tender value and awarded value are both £2,210. The published information identifies the successful supplier and contract term, but does not set out a separate scored evaluation breakdown.

This procurement demonstrates a defined demand from Innovate UK for project-supervision expertise delivered through a dynamic purchasing system. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need practical experience supervising projects outside construction, with the organisation, reporting discipline and stakeholder-management skills needed to monitor delivery for a public sector buyer. The opportunity was identified as suitable for SMEs, indicating that a smaller specialist consultancy can be an appropriate delivery model when it has enough capacity to provide dependable project oversight. Firms should also be able to operate within the United Kingdom and understand how to participate in selective call-offs from a dynamic purchasing system. Relevant evidence would include comparable supervision assignments, clear delivery methods and reliable governance arrangements.
