Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK procured project-supervision services for a non-construction project, classified under CPV 79421100. The work is a services requirement supporting project oversight rather than construction delivery, with activity taking place in the United Kingdom. The procurement was for a single requirement under the buyer’s project identified as Project 10206751. Innovate UK is the buying organisation. The opportunity is relevant to providers of project supervision, project management support, monitoring or related delivery oversight services, particularly those able to operate across UK assignments. It is also expressly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to smaller specialist consultancies and independent professional service providers with the necessary project oversight capability.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded on 18 August 2026 to Joss Newberry. The awarded value was £2,600. The contract period runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 July 2027. The requirement was procured through a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, rather than as an open standalone tender. The tender submission deadline was 11 August 2026 at 17:00. It was evaluated as a services procurement for project supervision. Innovate UK selected one supplier, and the award is recorded as active. The process therefore reports an awarded outcome rather than a current opportunity for new bids.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award provides a clear indication of Innovate UK’s demand for focused project-supervision support outside construction. A credible future competitor would need to deliver practical oversight of publicly funded or innovation-related projects, maintain clear monitoring and reporting arrangements, and work reliably with a public-sector buyer. The modest scale makes this particularly relevant to small specialist consultancies, independent project managers and professional service firms rather than only large contractors. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate disciplined project control, timely communication, evidence-based progress monitoring and the capacity to manage a defined assignment in the United Kingdom. Experience of comparable supervision or monitoring work would strengthen their position when this buyer’s requirement returns.
