Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK procured project-supervision services for three projects (CPV 79421100). The scope is identified only by the project references, without further detail about the supervision tasks. The procurement is categorised as a service, with the work located in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is Innovate UK.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to SMT Consulting. The award was made on 6 May 2026, at a value of £9,203. The contract period runs from 1 May 2026 to 31 January 2027. The requirement was a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, using a selective procurement method. It had a stated tender deadline of 27 April 2026. The opportunity was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No evaluation criteria or further eligibility conditions are recorded in the procurement details.

This award shows that Innovate UK buys project-supervision services for its projects through call-offs from a dynamic purchasing system. The work was awarded to an SME, indicating that a smaller consultancy can be a suitable supplier for this requirement. A future competitor would need to demonstrate credible project-supervision capability relevant to Innovate UK’s project portfolio and be able to respond to call-off opportunities through the applicable purchasing system. The procurement covers three projects, but the available description does not explain the work required on each, so suppliers should not assume a particular technical specialism or delivery model from this award alone. The award provides a concrete example of Innovate UK’s use of this route and the scale of a single project-supervision contract.
