Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services other than construction work, classified under CPV 79421100. The requirement is a services contract supporting project supervision and is intended for delivery in the United Kingdom. UK Research & Innovation is the buying organisation. The procurement is identified as a call-off requirement for project 10184699. It is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, while participation is not identified as being reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The awarded supplier, FIFY Ltd, is a small enterprise based in Harrogate, although the service delivery location is stated at UK level rather than for a particular town or site.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 18 August 2026 at 5pm, and the contract was awarded to FIFY Ltd on 24 August 2026. The awarded value is £4,520. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. The requirement was evaluated through the dynamic purchasing system call-off process. The award is active, with FIFY Ltd as the selected supplier. The contract covers the project-supervision services described in the tender, rather than construction work itself.

This award indicates a requirement for suppliers able to provide project-supervision services in support of UK Research & Innovation projects, outside construction supervision. A credible competitor for a comparable future requirement would need demonstrable capability in project oversight, coordination and monitoring, with sufficient professional capacity to manage the specified project-support duties. The procurement route also matters: suppliers would need to understand how to qualify for and operate through a dynamic purchasing system, then respond effectively to selective call-offs. The buyer has identified this type of work as suitable for SMEs, so smaller specialist consultancies with relevant project-supervision experience may be well placed to compete when a similar requirement returns.
