Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK procured project-supervision services for a specific project (CPV 79421100). The requirement is classified as a service, and delivery is stated to be in the United Kingdom. The procurement data gives no further description of the project or the supervision tasks, so the scope cannot be narrowed beyond project supervision. Innovate UK is the buying organisation. The selected supplier is an individual provider, Aaron Grantham, rather than a named company. This is a small-scale professional services requirement, rather than construction work itself. The buyer’s stated suitability indicates that small and medium-sized enterprises could compete, while voluntary, community and social enterprises were not considered suitable.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Innovate UK used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 16 April 2026 at 5pm. The contract was awarded to Aaron Grantham on 1 May 2026, for £4,650. The contract period runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2028. The process is recorded as a single requirement, with no lot breakdown. The award data does not state evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements beyond the stated suitability for SMEs and not for voluntary, community and social enterprises. No other award or contract outcome is recorded.

For suppliers considering similar future project-supervision work for Innovate UK, this award demonstrates demand for a focused, relatively small professional services engagement, delivered by an individual supplier. A credible competitor would need relevant project-supervision experience and the capacity to provide the required oversight throughout a sustained contract period. The selection route was a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, so suppliers would need to be positioned to participate through that route. Innovate UK marked the work as suitable for SMEs, indicating that a smaller specialist provider can compete; the selected supplier was an individual rather than a large firm. The requirement is supervision of a project, not construction delivery. The source does not set out the project subject, detailed duties, technical qualifications or accreditations, so those should not be assumed as requirements.
