Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, England, has completed the procurement process for a project involving project-supervision services outside of construction work, classified under CPV code 79421100. This selective tender was executed through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, indicative of targeted supplier engagement. The procurement, now in the 'Award' stage as of the 1st of May 2026, resulted in a contract valued at £2,939, covering a period from the 1st of July 2026 to the 30th of September 2027.
