Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK procured project-supervision services for a project in the United Kingdom, excluding construction work. The requirement sits within the services category and covers supervision and oversight of project activity rather than the delivery of construction itself. Innovate UK is the buying organisation, based at Polaris House in Swindon. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that the requirement was accessible to businesses operating at SME scale. The selected supplier, Mayflower Innovation, is also recorded as an SME and is based in Manchester. Businesses with experience supervising publicly funded or innovation-related projects, coordinating delivery and monitoring progress would recognise the type of work involved.

This procurement has been awarded and completed as a tender with a selective procedure, using a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 1 July 2026 at 17:00. Innovate UK awarded the contract to Mayflower Innovation on 22 July 2026 for £3,435 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028. The procurement was evaluated through the selective dynamic purchasing system call-off route. It is a single requirement rather than a procurement divided into separately described lots, and the recorded tender value is £3,435. The award is active, and the tender status is complete.

For a supplier that did not win this requirement, the award provides a clear indication of Innovate UK’s demand for project-supervision services outside construction and of the scale at which this type of assignment can be placed. A credible competitor would need practical capability in supervising projects, tracking delivery against agreed objectives, coordinating stakeholders and reporting progress to a public-sector or innovation-focused buyer. The successful supplier profile also shows that an SME can meet the buyer’s needs. Businesses seeking comparable work should be able to operate through a dynamic purchasing system call-off route and present concise evidence of relevant project oversight, dependable governance and the capacity to support delivery over a sustained period.
