## Summary

Innovate UK procured project-supervision services, classified as project supervision outside construction. The published scope identifies Project 10184147 but gives no further detail on the activities or outputs required. The buyer is Innovate UK. The stated delivery location is the United Kingdom, without a more specific place. This is a services requirement, and the procurement was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. It therefore concerns consultancy or professional services for overseeing a project rather than construction supervision. The contract was awarded to Exploratory Consultants Limited, a small and medium-sized supplier. The available description does not identify the project being supervised or the specialist subject matter, so suppliers considering comparable work should distinguish this requirement from construction-project management and assess its fit against the project-supervision service category.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Innovate UK selected Exploratory Consultants Limited. The award date was 12 May 2026, and the contract period runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2029. The award value is £12,435. The estimated procurement value was also £12,435. The competition used a selective procedure, as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The submission deadline was 1 May 2026 at 5pm. The process is recorded as one project-supervision requirement, with no separate lots described. No specific eligibility conditions or evaluation criteria are set out in the available procurement details, beyond SME suitability. This outcome shows a small-value, multi-year service contract awarded through a purchasing system rather than a standalone open competition.

For suppliers of project-supervision services, this award shows that Innovate UK has bought external support for oversight of a project through a dynamic purchasing system. The selected firm is an SME, and the requirement was marked suitable for SMEs, indicating that this type of work can be accessible to smaller consultancies as well as larger providers. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to demonstrate the ability to supervise a project over an extended period and provide dependable professional oversight. The stated scope does not identify a particular technical specialism, project subject, staffing model, accreditation or other capability threshold, so the strongest evidence to prepare would be relevant project-supervision experience and capacity to deliver sustained support. Suppliers should also understand the purchasing-system call-off route used for this award.
