Summary of the contracting process

Innovate UK procured project-supervision services other than construction work, classified under CPV 79421100. The requirement is for professional oversight and supervision of a project rather than construction delivery itself. Services are to be delivered in the United Kingdom. Innovate UK is the buying organisation. The procurement is categorised as a service opportunity and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The named requirement is “ITT For Project 10203634”, indicating a specific project assignment. This may suit consultancies and specialist project-management businesses that provide structured supervision, monitoring and coordination services for public-sector or innovation-related projects. The work concerns Innovate UK’s project-supervision need and is distinct from construction supervision, which is expressly outside the stated classification.

The procurement has been awarded and is complete. Innovate UK used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. Bids were due by 7 August 2026 at 5pm. The contract was awarded on 28 August 2026 to ALLOTROPE SCIENTIFIC LTD for £6,430 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2028. One supplier is identified for the award. The evaluation basis recorded for this process is the selective call-off route from the dynamic purchasing system; the published procurement information does not set out separate price, quality or technical weightings. The award is active, and the requirement is for services delivered in the United Kingdom.

This award provides a clear example of Innovate UK buying a focused project-supervision service through its dynamic purchasing system, at a modest contract scale suitable for an SME. Businesses competing for a comparable requirement would need credible capability in supervising and monitoring projects, coordinating delivery and reporting progress to a public-sector buyer. They would also need to understand the requirements for participating in a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system and to present a concise, relevant response for a defined project assignment. The successful supplier is an SME, showing that this type of work can be delivered by a smaller specialist business rather than only by a large consultancy. Firms with demonstrable project-supervision experience and efficient delivery processes would be well placed when Innovate UK requires similar support.
