Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK procured project-supervision services other than construction work for Project 10205737. The requirement falls within services and is to be delivered in the United Kingdom. The buyer is Innovate UK, based at Polaris House in England. The published scope identifies a single project requirement rather than separate work packages or lots. This is relevant to firms providing project monitoring, coordination, oversight and reporting services for public-sector or innovation projects, particularly suppliers able to work with a UK-wide delivery requirement. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that the buyer considered the requirement accessible to businesses of that scale. The named service is project supervision rather than construction management, so construction contractors without project-supervision capability are less likely to be well matched.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Innovate UK used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, with responses due by 3 August 2026 at 17:00. The contract was awarded on 12 August 2026 to Phoenix Performance Solutions for £3,960. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2028. The award is active and the tender status is complete. The requirement was evaluated through the dynamic purchasing system call-off route; the available procurement data does not set out separate quality, price or other scoring criteria. The opportunity was structured as one project-supervision services requirement, with no separate lots identified. Phoenix Performance Solutions is recorded as an SME supplier. The outcome provides a clear reference point for the buyer’s purchasing route, contract scale and delivery duration.

This award is useful market evidence for SMEs delivering project supervision, monitoring and related coordination services to Innovate UK. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to demonstrate practical control of project activity, reliable progress monitoring, clear reporting and the ability to support the buyer throughout a lengthy delivery period. Experience supervising non-construction projects, particularly innovation or publicly funded programmes, would help establish relevance. Suppliers should also be able to operate through a dynamic purchasing system and respond effectively to selective call-offs, where eligibility for the system and a focused response are important routes to consideration. The awarded supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist business rather than only a large consultancy. Firms with proportionate project-governance capability and evidence of dependable oversight would be well placed when comparable work returns.
