Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK procured project-supervision services for a non-construction project identified as Project 10202901. The requirement sits within business and management consultancy services, specifically project-supervision services other than construction work. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The buyer is Innovate UK, the UK innovation agency. The procurement concerns a defined project-support requirement rather than construction delivery, engineering works or general goods supply. It is therefore relevant to consultancies and specialist service providers that supervise, coordinate or monitor project activity for public-sector or innovation-focused programmes. The named supplier, Science Developments Ltd, is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise, indicating that the requirement was suitable for an SME supplier.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 29 July 2026 at 17:00. The contract was awarded to Science Developments Ltd on 12 August 2026 for £3,164. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. The overall estimated tender value was also £3,164. The award is active. Innovate UK used the dynamic purchasing system route to select the supplier for this project-supervision requirement. The recorded procurement category is services, and the opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No separate lots or multiple awards are recorded.

This award provides a clear example of Innovate UK buying a focused project-supervision service from an SME through a dynamic purchasing system. Suppliers considering comparable work for this buyer would need a service offering centred on supervising, coordinating and monitoring projects rather than delivering construction, physical works or general supplies. They would also need to understand how to participate through the relevant dynamic purchasing system and respond to selective call-offs. The modest contract scale indicates a requirement that can be delivered by a small specialist consultancy or an equivalent team, rather than only by a large national provider. A credible competitor would therefore combine practical project-supervision capability with the administrative readiness to work within Innovate UK’s purchasing route.
