The procurement process, managed by UK Research & Innovation, involves a contract for project-supervision services in the industry category of 'Project-supervision services other than for construction work'. The procurement pertains to a location in the United Kingdom and is currently in the 'Award' stage. The process employed a selective procurement method as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender period ended on 30th September 2025, with the contract period extending from 1st November 2025 to 30th April 2026. The total contract value is £1,500.
