Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation commissioned project-supervision services for two projects. The work concerns oversight of projects rather than construction supervision, and is classified as a services requirement. The recorded delivery location is the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Nidd Consulting Ltd. The award was made on 22 September 2026, for £10,580. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 June 2027. The procurement was a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system; the tender submission deadline was 26 August 2026. The requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

For suppliers considering similar project-supervision work for UK Research and Innovation, this award demonstrates demand for oversight services across multiple projects through a dynamic purchasing system call-off. The selected supplier is a small business, and the procurement was marked suitable for SMEs, indicating that a smaller consultancy can be a credible fit for this scale of requirement. Relevant experience in supervising projects, together with the capacity to cover more than one project, would be pertinent when this buyer next needs comparable services.
