Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK procured project-supervision services other than construction work, classified under CPV 79421100. The requirement supports supervision and oversight of a project rather than construction activity itself. It is a professional service delivered in the United Kingdom. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, while participation was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The buyer is Innovate UK, based at Polaris House in England. The requirement was handled as a single service need, with the work intended for the buyer’s project-supervision purposes. Businesses with experience overseeing projects, coordinating delivery and monitoring progress in a public-sector or innovation environment would find the subject matter most relevant.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Innovate UK used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 28 July 2026 at 17:00. The contract was awarded to A2F Associates Limited on 18 August 2026 for £3,060. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. A2F Associates Limited is identified as an SME. The award is active, and the published outcome records one supplier for the requirement. The procurement’s stated value and awarded value are both £3,060. The process was evaluated through the selective dynamic-purchasing-system call-off route; the published information does not set out separate quality or price weightings.

This award is commercially relevant to small project-management and project-supervision consultancies, particularly firms able to provide focused oversight without the scale of a major construction-management operation. A credible future supplier would need to show that it can monitor project progress, coordinate stakeholders, identify delivery issues and provide clear supervision or reporting to Innovate UK. The successful supplier’s SME status indicates that the buyer has used a smaller business for this type of requirement, so specialist firms with proportionate resources may be well placed when comparable work returns. Experience working with publicly funded innovation, research or business-support projects would strengthen a supplier’s position, alongside reliable delivery controls and the ability to operate across the United Kingdom.
