Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation commissioned project-supervision services other than construction work for projects 10199669, 10199915 and 10199340. The requirement is a professional services assignment supporting oversight and supervision of these projects, rather than construction delivery itself. Services are to be delivered in the United Kingdom. The procurement falls within the services category and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The named buyer is UK Research & Innovation, a public research and innovation organisation. This opportunity is relevant to businesses providing project supervision, project management oversight, monitoring or related support services for publicly funded research and innovation activity. It may also suit specialist consultancies or independent providers able to supervise several related projects and work with public-sector stakeholders.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 25 June 2026 at 5pm, and the award was made on 6 July 2026. Andrew Kimber Coaching was selected for the contract at an awarded value of £14,850. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 January 2028. The requirement covered the three identified projects as a single procurement, with evaluation conducted through the dynamic purchasing system call-off route. The tender’s estimated value was also £14,850. UK Research & Innovation was the buyer, and the procurement was classified as project-supervision services other than construction work.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from UK Research & Innovation for external supervision of multiple projects, with a small contract scale that can suit an SME or specialist independent provider. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need practical project-supervision and monitoring capability, the capacity to oversee several related assignments, and the discipline to provide clear progress oversight to a public research organisation. Experience working with publicly funded projects, research and innovation stakeholders, structured reporting, risk monitoring and delivery assurance would strengthen a supplier’s position. Providers should also be able to operate through a dynamic purchasing system and respond to selective call-off competitions, rather than relying only on open tender routes.
