Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services other than construction work, classified under CPV 79421100. The requirement supports supervision and oversight of a project rather than construction delivery itself. The buying organisation is UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, England, and the services are to be delivered in the United Kingdom. This is a service contract suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The procurement concerns a single project requirement identified by the buyer as project 10184689. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are those providing project supervision, coordination or monitoring services for research and innovation activity, particularly where delivery can cover UK-based work and the supplier can support a public research organisation.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a selective procedure using a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 20 May 2026 at 17:00. UK Research & Innovation awarded the contract to Allotrope Scientific Ltd on 3 June 2026 for £2,825. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 December 2026. The award was active when recorded. Evaluation was for project-supervision services under the stated procurement route; the published process identifies the requirement as suitable for SMEs. The award is for the full stated requirement and there are no separate lots or separately reported awards. The contract is for services, not goods or construction works.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award shows that UK Research & Innovation buys focused project-supervision support through its dynamic purchasing system, including requirements that can be delivered by an SME. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical capability in supervising and monitoring projects, organising activities, tracking progress and providing clear oversight to the public research and innovation environment. The successful supplier profile indicates that a small business can meet this type of requirement. Relevant firms should be able to demonstrate dependable project coordination, structured reporting, communication with stakeholders and the capacity to deliver a defined assignment for a UK-wide public-sector buyer. Experience of research, innovation or other technically managed projects would help establish credibility when this requirement returns to market.
