Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation procured project-supervision services other than construction work for project 10195406. The requirement falls within professional project management and oversight services, supporting the supervision and coordination of a project rather than construction delivery itself. The buying organisation is UK Research and Innovation, based in Swindon, England. Delivery is required in the United Kingdom. This is a services procurement and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The named requirement is a single project assignment, so suppliers with focused project-supervision capability may be relevant even if they do not operate at the scale of a major national consultancy. The work is distinct from construction project supervision and is classified under CPV 79421100.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Sandhills Management Consultancy Limited. The award date was 22 June 2026. The awarded value is £5,800. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2029. The tender deadline was 11 June 2026 at 5pm. UK Research and Innovation used a selective procedure, specifically a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The procurement was evaluated as a project-supervision services requirement, with the resulting award made to one supplier. The contract is recorded as active, and the tender is complete. The award and contract cover the same UK-wide services requirement and period.

This award indicates demand from UK Research and Innovation for specialist project-supervision support outside construction. A credible future competitor would need to demonstrate practical experience supervising projects, coordinating delivery activity and maintaining effective oversight for a public-sector research and innovation environment. Relevant firms are likely to be small or medium-sized consultancies with focused project-management expertise, clear reporting methods and the capacity to provide dependable support over a multi-year engagement. The procurement route is also significant: suppliers seeking similar work should understand how to qualify for and operate through a dynamic purchasing system, as this buyer used a selective call-off rather than an open standalone competition. The requirement suits a focused consultancy rather than a construction contractor.
