Summary of the contracting process

The contracting process facilitated by UK Research & Innovation, headquartered at Polaris House, North Star Avenue, Swindon, focused on project-supervision services not related to construction, as detailed in procurement ID ITT for Project 10197293. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically classified as project-supervision services, with a CPV code of 79421100. The process, tagged as 'award' stage, concluded with the completion of the tender evaluation, and the award announcement was published on 23rd July 2026. The service is to be delivered in the United Kingdom, with the contract period spanning from 1st July 2026 to 31st March 2027. This particular award followed a selective procurement method, derived from a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, and involved a financial commitment of £4,400.

This procurement represents an excellent opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) like FIFY LTD, who was awarded the contract, to expand their portfolios by engaging with a reputable public contracting authority. Given the preference for SMEs as indicated in the suitability section, businesses operating within the project supervision space, especially those adept at managing and overseeing projects in non-construction sectors, would be well-positioned to compete. The controlled structure of a dynamic purchasing system allows capable businesses to secure contracts efficiently and augment their expertise and credibility in the industry.
