Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation commissioned project-supervision services, classified under CPV 79421100, for Project 10203896. The published scope identifies project supervision other than for construction work; it does not describe particular project activities or deliverables. The buyer is UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, and the work is located in the United Kingdom. This is a services procurement, rather than a purchase of goods or construction works. The requirement shows demand for independent oversight and coordination of project activity, but the stated scope is limited to project-supervision services and does not establish a wider consultancy or delivery role.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Galpin Benton Associates Limited, a small and medium-sized enterprise. The award date was 25 August 2026, and the contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. The awarded value is £3,150. The requirement was procured through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, using a selective procedure. The tender deadline was 5 August 2026 at 17:00. The procurement was identified as suitable for SMEs. The published information does not set out evaluation criteria or a scoring basis, so the award outcome cannot be linked to a stated price-quality balance or specific technical threshold.

For suppliers considering comparable project-supervision work for UK Research & Innovation, this award demonstrates demand for a defined, relatively small-scale services requirement, routed through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. A credible competitor would need to provide project-supervision capability suited to work outside construction, and be able to operate within the buyer’s stated project requirement. The selected supplier was an SME, indicating that this scale of work was deliverable by a smaller business. The available requirement does not establish particular qualifications, accreditations, staffing levels or specialist project experience as selection conditions, so these should not be treated as proven prerequisites. Relevant experience in supervising and coordinating projects would help a supplier demonstrate fit when a comparable requirement is next considered.
