Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK bought project-supervision services for a project, classified as non-construction project supervision. The procurement describes the requirement only as Project 10208407, so the particular project activities and supervision scope are not further detailed. The buyer is Innovate UK, and the delivery location is stated as the United Kingdom. This is a services requirement rather than a supply of goods or construction works. The procurement was run as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, meaning it drew on suppliers participating in that purchasing arrangement. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award went to Light Touch UK, a small business, establishing a recent example of Innovate UK buying project-supervision support through this route.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Light Touch UK. Innovate UK selected the supplier on 12 August 2026, following a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The stated awarded value is £7,000. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028. The submission deadline was 4 August 2026 at 5pm. The procurement records one requirement and one award; no lot breakdown is presented. The award criteria and a detailed evaluation basis are not described. The tender was marked complete, and the award is active. The published contract period therefore indicates a two-year project-supervision engagement, while the recorded value is the value of this award. The successful supplier was Light Touch UK.

For suppliers of project-supervision services, this award shows that Innovate UK purchases project oversight through call-offs from a dynamic purchasing system, rather than describing a standalone open competition. A small business secured the work, and the requirement was marked as suitable for SMEs, suggesting that smaller specialist providers can be credible competitors for this scale of assignment. Businesses considering comparable future work should be equipped to supervise projects and deliver the relevant management support over a sustained engagement. The project itself and the precise supervision tasks are not identified, so this award does not establish a particular technical specialism or accreditation requirement. A supplier’s strongest fit would be demonstrable project-supervision capability and capacity to support Innovate UK through the purchasing system route. The award provides evidence of demand from this buyer, not an invitation to compete for this contract.
