## Summary

Innovate UK procured project-supervision services for a non-construction project, under Project 10203216. The requirement is classified as project-supervision services other than for construction work, covering professional oversight and coordination of project activity rather than construction delivery. The service is categorised as a public service procurement and is to be delivered in the United Kingdom. The buyer is Innovate UK, based at Polaris House in England. This is a focused requirement for a supplier able to provide project supervision for the buyer’s specific project, rather than a broad construction management or works contract. The stated requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to specialist project-management businesses with the ability to support a UK public-sector innovation programme.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Innovate UK used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 28 July 2026 at 17:00. The contract was awarded to UPSTART BIO LTD on 7 August 2026 for £4,495. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. The award is active. The procurement was identified as suitable for SMEs and not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The published information does not set out separate lots or an evaluation weighting. This outcome confirms that the requirement was fulfilled through the dynamic purchasing system route, with one supplier selected for the project-supervision service.

This procurement indicates demand from Innovate UK for specialist project-supervision support outside construction, delivered by a small business. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to demonstrate practical capability in supervising and coordinating projects, maintaining oversight of progress and deliverables, and working effectively with a public-sector innovation buyer. The small, focused award suggests the requirement can suit an SME with targeted project-management expertise rather than only a large consultancy. Businesses should be able to show that they can take responsibility for structured project oversight, communicate clearly with stakeholders and provide dependable support throughout the assignment. Experience of public-sector, innovation or research-related projects would help establish relevance, provided it can be evidenced against this type of supervision service.
