Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services other than construction work, classified under CPV 79421100. The requirement supports the oversight and coordination of projects rather than construction delivery itself. The service is categorised as a professional service and is intended for delivery in the United Kingdom. UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, is the buying organisation. The awarded supplier, Promar International Ltd, is based in Basingstoke, Hampshire. The opportunity is relevant to consultancies and specialist project-management businesses that provide supervision, monitoring or coordination services for public-sector or research-related projects. It may suit smaller firms: the procurement identifies the requirement as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, while participation is not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. UK Research & Innovation used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. Bids closed on 7 May 2026 at 17:00. The contract was awarded to Promar International Ltd on 18 May 2026 for £15,930. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 December 2028. The awarded value and contract period apply to the single recorded award. The selected supplier is Promar International Ltd, and the award is active. The process was evaluated through the purchasing route established by the dynamic purchasing system; the available outcome identifies the successful supplier and award value but does not set out separate evaluation weightings or criteria.

This award indicates a defined requirement within UK Research & Innovation for external project-supervision services covering a multi-year delivery period. Businesses considering future work with this buyer would need a credible capability in supervising, monitoring and coordinating projects, with the organisational capacity to provide continuity across the requirement. The successful supplier is an SME, showing that the work can be delivered by a smaller specialist business rather than only a large consultancy. Relevant firms should be comfortable supplying services across the United Kingdom and operating through a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. A business seeking comparable work would benefit from being established on the relevant purchasing system and able to demonstrate dependable project oversight for a public-sector research and innovation organisation.
