Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation is buying project-supervision services unrelated to construction. The requirement is identified as Project 10204507, but no further description of the work or its intended outcomes is provided. The procurement is categorised as a service and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The delivery location is stated only as the United Kingdom, with no specific town or site identified. This is a focused project-supervision requirement rather than construction work itself; suppliers whose business centres on overseeing and coordinating projects may therefore find the subject relevant. UK Research & Innovation is the buyer.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Onibury Consulting Ltd. The award was made on 18 September 2026, for £2,740. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027. The original estimated procurement value was also £2,740. The buyer used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. No lots are identified. The stated closing deadline for submissions was 2 September 2026 at 5pm. Small and medium-sized enterprises were considered suitable to participate, while voluntary, community and social enterprises were not. The procurement data gives no further detail on the evaluation criteria or the specific eligibility requirements.

This award shows that UK Research & Innovation purchases project-supervision services through call-offs from a dynamic purchasing system, and that an SME supplier secured this requirement. Businesses specialising in project oversight, coordination and supervision outside construction are the closest fit for a comparable future requirement from this buyer. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate that it can provide project-supervision services at a focused scale and meet the buyer’s requirements for the particular project. The award establishes a modest individual contract as the relevant commercial scale, rather than a large programme of work. It does not establish any specific professional accreditation, technical method or experience threshold, so suppliers should not infer that these were conditions of this award. The successful supplier was Onibury Consulting Ltd.
