Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation procured project-supervision services for projects 10186264 and 10184946. The requirement falls within project supervision other than construction work and is a professional service rather than goods or construction. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The procurement covers UKRI’s need for oversight and supervision of the named projects, supporting their management through the contracted service period. UKRI is the buying organisation and is based at Polaris House in Swindon. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to specialist project-supervision consultancies and smaller professional services firms with the capability to support publicly funded research and innovation projects.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Mayflower Innovation on 29 May 2026. It was run as a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 20 May 2026 at 5pm. The awarded contract value is £3,487. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 December 2026. UK Research and Innovation is the buyer. The award is active, and the contract covers project-supervision services for the two named projects. The published procurement information identifies SME suitability and a services category; the award record does not state separate lots or additional evaluation weightings.

For a supplier that did not win this requirement, the procurement indicates a defined demand from UK Research and Innovation for small-scale, specialist project-supervision support across named research and innovation projects. A credible future competitor would need to provide project supervision as a professional service, organise oversight across more than one project, and work effectively within UKRI’s public-sector contracting arrangements. Experience of supporting research or innovation projects would help demonstrate relevance, while the SME suitability indicates that a smaller consultancy can be an appropriate delivery model. Suppliers should also be able to operate across the United Kingdom and compete through a dynamic purchasing system call-off route, rather than relying only on large, open standalone tenders.
