Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation bought project-supervision services for a project, classified under CPV 79421100. The procurement describes a single service item and identifies the United Kingdom as its delivery location. The requirement is for supervision of a project rather than construction work; no further project activities or outputs are described. UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, is the buyer. This is a specialist professional-services requirement, not a purchase of goods or construction works.

The procurement is complete and awarded. UK Research & Innovation selected Dik Gregory Consulting Limited through a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The award was made on 29 April 2026, following a tender deadline of 21 April 2026 at 5pm. The awarded value is £8,825. The contract period runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2030. The procurement has one service item and is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No evaluation criteria or scoring basis are stated in the available process information.

This award shows that UK Research & Innovation uses a dynamic purchasing system to buy project-supervision services and that a small consultancy was selected for this requirement. Suppliers competing for a similar requirement from this buyer should be able to provide project supervision outside construction, with a scale and delivery model suited to a focused, single-project service. The successful supplier's SME status indicates that a smaller business can deliver this kind of work; it does not establish that SME status was a selection criterion. The requirement is relevant to consultancies with practical project-supervision capability, rather than construction contractors or suppliers of goods. The published scope does not identify a particular sector specialism or accreditation.
