Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation procured project-supervision services for work other than construction. The requirement is classified as project-supervision services and falls within the services category. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is UK Research and Innovation, based in Swindon, England. The selected supplier is Science Developments Ltd, a London-based small business. The requirement concerns supervision of a specific project identified as Project 10187002, rather than construction work itself. Businesses operating in project supervision, project oversight and related delivery support would be the most relevant comparators when assessing this buyer’s future requirements.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. Bids closed at 5pm on 23 April 2026. UK Research and Innovation awarded the contract to Science Developments Ltd on 7 May 2026 for £4,363, with a contract period from 1 July 2026 to 31 December 2027. The tender’s estimated value was also £4,363. The award is active. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The published information identifies project-supervision services as the requirement; no separate award scoring basis is stated.

For competitors, this award provides a clear example of UK Research and Innovation buying project-supervision services through a dynamic purchasing system. A credible future supplier would need practical expertise in supervising projects other than construction work, together with the capacity to deliver a defined project requirement for a research and innovation organisation. The award went to a small business, showing that the buyer’s route can accommodate SME suppliers rather than being limited to large professional-services firms. Businesses with a suitable project-supervision track record should monitor this buyer’s requirements and understand how to qualify for, and compete through, the relevant dynamic purchasing system.
