Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation bought project-supervision services for a project. The stated scope is limited to project supervision, with the procurement classified as services. The work is identified as taking place in the United Kingdom, without a more specific delivery location. UK Research & Innovation is the buyer. The selected supplier, IFS MO Company, is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The procurement title and description do not give further operational detail about the project, its subject matter, or the specific supervision tasks. This requirement is relevant to providers of project oversight and supervision services for UK public-sector research and innovation activity; suppliers whose work is limited to construction supervision should note that the service is classified as project supervision other than for construction work.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to IFS MO Company. UK Research & Innovation used a selective process through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The award was made on 22 September 2026. The awarded value is £5,350. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028. The tender deadline was 15 September 2026 at 5pm. The opportunity was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and not for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The procurement is presented as a single project-supervision requirement, with no separate lots described. No evaluation criteria or scoring basis are recorded in the supplied process details, so the basis on which the selected supplier was assessed cannot be stated.

This award demonstrates a small-scale requirement from UK Research & Innovation for project-supervision services delivered through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to provide practical project oversight and supervision suited to research and innovation work, and be able to operate within the buyer’s purchasing-system route. The award to an SME indicates that a smaller supplier was capable of delivering this particular requirement; it does not establish any specific accreditation, team size, technical qualification or prior experience requirement. Businesses focused on construction supervision may be less closely aligned, since the service is described as project supervision other than for construction work. The requirement’s limited published description means the precise supervision tasks and project context cannot be used to infer further capability needs.
