## Summary

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services other than construction supervision, classified under CPV 79421100. The work supports the management and oversight of projects rather than construction delivery. It is a services requirement to be delivered in the United Kingdom, with UKRI as the buying organisation. The procurement was structured for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to specialist project-management and project-supervision consultancies as well as larger professional-services providers. The named requirement covered two internal references, 10180863 and 10182273, indicating that the services relate to more than one UKRI project or workstream. The selected supplier was a specialist assessment-services company, showing that the requirement could be fulfilled by an SME-scale professional services business.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 7 August 2026 at 5pm. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028. UK Research & Innovation awarded the contract to SPARK ASSESSMENT SERVICES LIMITED on 3 September 2026. The awarded value is £7,930. The procurement’s estimated value was also £7,930. The contract is recorded as active, and the award relates to the full project-supervision services requirement. The award was made through the established purchasing system route rather than a standalone open tender, with supplier selection completed through that system’s call-off process.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the opportunity provides a clear example of UKRI buying specialist project-supervision support through a dynamic purchasing system. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need demonstrable expertise in supervising and overseeing projects, with the professional judgement to monitor delivery, identify issues and provide structured assessment or assurance. The awarded supplier’s SME status shows that the work can suit a focused consultancy rather than only a large professional-services group. Relevant firms should be able to deliver consistently across the United Kingdom, work within a public research and innovation environment, and respond efficiently to call-off competitions under a dynamic purchasing system. The requirement also indicates demand for compact, specialist assignments covering multiple internal work references.
