Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, led by UK Research & Innovation, focused on project-supervision services excluding construction work, concluding with an award on 18th December 2025. Operating from their Swindon base, they selected a supplier for a project classified under the CPV code 79421100. The contract, valued at £1,500, will run from 1st October 2025 to 31st March 2026 in the United Kingdom. This procurement followed a selective method as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, having transitioned from the tender stage, which ended on 27th August 2025.

This tender presents potential growth avenues for SMEs specialising in project supervision, enabling them to secure contracts through well-structured procurement approaches like dynamic purchasing systems. Given its service-oriented nature and SME suitability, businesses in project management sectors, especially those with expertise in non-construction oversight, would find this opportunity particularly beneficial. Viapontica Ltd has been awarded the contract, underscoring the viability for smaller scale enterprises to engage successfully with significant buyers like UK Research & Innovation.
