Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation commissioned project-supervision services for three projects. The procurement description provides no further detail on the projects or the specific supervision activities. Delivery is stated as being in the United Kingdom, without a more precise location. This is a services contract for a buyer responsible for research and innovation funding and programmes.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to P&I Associates Ltd. The award was made on 23 September 2026, following a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The estimated procurement value and awarded contract value are both £11,700. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028. The submission deadline was 15 September 2026 at 5pm. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No evaluation criteria or project-specific award basis are stated in the available procurement details.

This award shows that UK Research & Innovation buys project-supervision services through call-offs from a dynamic purchasing system, and that a small or medium-sized supplier can win this type of work. A credible competitor for the same three-project requirement would need to demonstrate the ability to supervise projects and provide services at a modest scale over a multi-year contract. The award does not reveal the projects’ subject matter, the supervision tasks, or any required qualifications, accreditations or capacity thresholds, so these cannot be treated as established requirements. The useful commercial signal is specific to UKRI’s use of project-supervision services and its route to market; suppliers whose experience covers project oversight and delivery would be best placed to assess a comparable requirement.
