Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation procured project-supervision services for seven projects: 10198989, 10198895, 10197509, 10196757, 10198892, 10199266 and 10198950. The requirement covers supervision and oversight of projects other than construction work, classified under CPV 79421100. It is a services contract intended for delivery in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is UK Research and Innovation, based in Swindon, England. The procurement concerns professional project supervision rather than construction delivery itself, so it is relevant to consultancies and specialist service providers that manage, monitor or oversee non-construction projects for public-sector clients. The requirement was grouped as one overall service rather than being presented as separate lots.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. UK Research and Innovation used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The submission deadline was 24 June 2026 at 5pm. The contract was awarded to LUGOS TECHNOLOGY LTD on 29 June 2026 for £47,200. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 January 2028. The award is active. The published procurement information records the contract as a single requirement covering the seven listed projects, with an estimated tender value matching the awarded value. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the award was made to an SME.

This award shows that UK Research and Innovation buys external supervision and oversight for multiple non-construction projects through a dynamic purchasing system. Competitors seeking similar work should be able to provide structured project-supervision services across a group of public-sector projects, with sufficient capacity to manage several assignments within one requirement. A credible supplier would need to demonstrate practical oversight, coordination, monitoring and reporting capability, rather than construction delivery. The award to an SME indicates that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist business, provided it can manage the scope reliably and meet the standards expected by a major publicly funded research organisation. The requirement provides a clear reference point for similar future purchasing by this buyer.
