Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation procured project-supervision services for four projects, identified as 10187527, 10186007, 10185732 and 10183580. The work falls within professional project management and supervision services rather than construction work, with the purpose of overseeing delivery across these projects. It is a services requirement delivered in the United Kingdom. The buyer is UK Research and Innovation, a public research and innovation organisation based in Swindon, England. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to specialist project-management consultancies and other smaller professional services firms with experience supervising publicly funded or research-related projects.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 20 May 2026 at 17:00. The contract was awarded to Prism Nova Limited on 7 June 2026 for £6,200. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 December 2026. The procurement was evaluated as a single services requirement covering the four named projects. The award is active, with UK Research and Innovation as the buyer and Prism Nova Limited as the selected supplier. The recorded procurement value and awarded value are both £6,200, in pounds sterling.

For suppliers that did not win this requirement, the award demonstrates demand from UK Research and Innovation for compact, specialist project-supervision assignments covering multiple projects. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need practical project-management capability, the capacity to supervise several projects within a defined assignment, and experience providing structured oversight and coordination rather than construction delivery itself. The procurement was routed through a dynamic purchasing system, so suppliers seeking similar work would need to understand and qualify for that purchasing route. The buyer explicitly identified the requirement as suitable for SMEs, indicating that a focused consultancy or small professional services business can be an appropriate competitor where it can evidence relevant supervision experience and dependable delivery.
