Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services, classified under CPV 79421100. The published scope is limited to an item described only as project supervision; no specific project, activities or outputs are identified. The buyer is UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, England. The work is associated with the United Kingdom, but no more precise delivery location is stated. This is a services requirement rather than a purchase of goods or construction work.

The procurement has been awarded. UK Research & Innovation used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, and the award was made to Sandhills Management Consultancy Limited. The award date was 27 July 2026. The awarded value is £4,250. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028. The tender submission deadline was 10 July 2026. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No lots or evaluation criteria are described in the published process information.

For a consultancy competing for similar UK Research & Innovation work, this award demonstrates demand for project-supervision services through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The selected supplier is a small or medium-sized management consultancy, indicating that a specialist SME can deliver this type of requirement at the scale involved. A credible competitor would need to show relevant project-supervision capability and the capacity to support the buyer over a multi-year contract. The stated scope is broad and contains no particular project discipline, technical standard or accreditation requirement, so the evidence supports positioning around project oversight for UK Research & Innovation rather than assuming specialist qualifications.
