Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation commissioned project-supervision services for two research-related projects, covering supervision and oversight work other than construction activities. The procurement is categorised as a service contract for project supervision rather than physical works, equipment supply or construction management. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The buyer is UK Research and Innovation, the public body responsible for supporting and funding research and innovation. The requirement is therefore relevant to firms providing project oversight, coordination, monitoring and related management services in a research or public-sector environment. It may suit specialist consultancies and smaller professional services businesses with the capability to manage project delivery and reporting across UK-based programmes.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. Bids were due by 7 August 2026 at 17:00. The contract was awarded on 26 August 2026 to Jorvik Food and Environmental Chemical Safety Ltd for £11,750. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028. The tender’s estimated value was also £11,750. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award is active, and the selected supplier is responsible for delivering the project-supervision services for UK Research and Innovation.

For a supplier that did not win, this award demonstrates that UK Research and Innovation uses a dynamic purchasing system to source specialist project-supervision services for defined research-related requirements. A credible competitor would need to provide structured oversight of projects outside the construction sector, with the ability to coordinate delivery, monitor progress, manage risks and maintain clear records for a public research organisation. Experience of supporting research, innovation, scientific or similarly technical programmes would strengthen a supplier’s position, particularly where work involves several stakeholders and formal reporting. The buyer’s identification of the requirement as suitable for SMEs indicates that a focused consultancy or specialist professional services firm can be relevant, provided it can demonstrate dependable project-management capability and appropriate delivery capacity.
