Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process initiated by UK Research & Innovation has been successfully awarded. This process, titled "ITT for Project 10174051," fell under the industry category "Project-supervision services other than for construction work," classified by CPV code 79421100. The procurement method was selective, specifically a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The process took place in Swindon, England, with key dates spanning from the tender period end on 6th October 2025, to the contract period scheduled from 1st November 2025 to 30th April 2026. The award was made to A Gunn Consulting on 11th October 2025, with a contract value of £1,500.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within the service sector, particularly those specialising in project supervision. Given the selective procurement method employed, businesses already engaged in dynamic purchasing systems are uniquely positioned to leverage their existing capacities and processes to meet project demands. This not only allows for growth within the chosen company – A Gunn Consulting – but also sets a precedent for other SMEs looking to secure similar contracts by participating in and qualifying for dynamic purchasing systems.
