Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK bought project-supervision services, classified under CPV 79421100, for Project 10191590. The procurement lists one service item and gives the United Kingdom as its delivery country. The buyer is Innovate UK. The scope is identified only as project supervision; no specific project activities or outputs are described. This is a service requirement rather than a purchase of goods or construction work. The process was run as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, indicating that the buyer used that purchasing route to source the service. The awarded supplier, Science Developments Ltd, is a small or medium-sized enterprise based in London.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Science Developments Ltd. Innovate UK selected the supplier on 16 April 2026. The award value is £1,532. The contract period runs from 1 May 2026 to 30 November 2026. The estimated tender value was also £1,532. The procurement used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The stated bid deadline was 31 March 2026 at 5pm. The requirement was not divided into stated lots. Small and medium-sized enterprises were identified as suitable to participate. No evaluation criteria or further eligibility requirements are described in the procurement details.

For firms providing project-supervision services, this award shows that Innovate UK has bought a focused, relatively small service through a call-off from its dynamic purchasing system. The selected supplier is an SME, and SMEs were considered suitable for the requirement, so the procurement offers evidence that the buyer's route can accommodate smaller providers. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to deliver project supervision and be able to participate through the relevant purchasing system. The available description does not establish specialist technical disciplines, named accreditations, staffing levels or particular project outputs, so the award provides no basis for assuming those were decisive. Suppliers with experience of project oversight and the capacity to deliver a bounded service engagement are the closest fit.
