## Summary

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services, specifically supervision of a non-construction project. The requirement is categorised as a service and is delivered in the United Kingdom. The procurement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The buyer is UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, and the selected supplier is Merralls Consulting Limited, an SME based in Worcestershire. The scope is identified as project-supervision services other than for construction work, indicating a requirement for professional oversight, coordination and monitoring of a project rather than construction delivery itself. This opportunity is relevant to consultancies and project-management specialists with experience supporting public-sector research or innovation programmes and overseeing project activity across the UK.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. UK Research & Innovation used a selective procedure, making a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 18 August 2026 at 17:00. Merralls Consulting Limited was awarded the contract on 7 September 2026 for £6,220. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028. The procurement was evaluated as a single service requirement and the award value matches the tender value. The award is active, and the contract covers the full two-year period. The process therefore records a completed call-off and a selected supplier rather than an opportunity for further bids under this procurement.

This award shows that UK Research & Innovation uses its dynamic purchasing system to buy specialist project-supervision support from an SME for a defined, two-year assignment. It is relevant evidence for project-management consultancies that can provide structured oversight, coordination, monitoring and reporting for publicly funded research or innovation work. A credible future supplier would need to demonstrate a clear method for supervising projects, maintaining governance and delivery controls, identifying risks, tracking progress and communicating with a public-sector client. Experience working with research, innovation or grant-funded programmes would strengthen a bid, alongside the capacity to provide consistent support throughout a substantial contract period. Firms already qualified to operate through dynamic purchasing systems may be particularly well placed to pursue similar call-offs.
