Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation bought project-supervision services for a non-construction project, classified under CPV 79421100. The work is a professional service supporting oversight and supervision of project activity rather than construction delivery itself. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The buyer is UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, England. The requirement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that the work was structured for delivery by a smaller specialist provider as well as larger organisations. The selected supplier was Biohelix Solutions Ltd, a UK SME based in Bishops Waltham. The procurement concerns a single project requirement identified by the buyer as Project 10186051.

This procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 23 April 2026 at 5pm, and the award was made on 8 May 2026. Biohelix Solutions Ltd was awarded the contract for £4,500 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 31 December 2027. The tender’s estimated value was also £4,500. The available procurement data identifies the service category and route to market, while the outcome confirms that one supplier was selected. The contract is for services delivered in the United Kingdom.

This award demonstrates demand from UK Research & Innovation for specialist project-supervision support outside construction work. A competitor seeking similar work from this buyer would need credible capability in supervising and monitoring project activity, with the organisation, reporting discipline and professional judgement to support a public research and innovation body. The requirement was accessible to SMEs, so a smaller specialist consultancy with relevant project oversight experience could be well placed when comparable requirements return. Firms would also need to understand how to operate through a dynamic purchasing system and compete in selective call-offs, including responding to the buyer’s defined project brief and demonstrating that their team can provide dependable UK-wide service delivery.
