## Summary

UK Research & Innovation procured project-supervision services, classified as project supervision other than for construction work (CPV 79421100). The procurement is identified only as Project 10189538; no further description of the project or supervision tasks is provided. The buyer is UK Research & Innovation, based in Swindon, England. The stated delivery location is the United Kingdom, without a more specific place. This is a services requirement, rather than a purchase of goods or construction works. The process has concluded with an award to Spark Assessment Services Limited, a small and medium-sized enterprise. The requirement therefore shows UKRI buying project supervision services, although the available description does not define the subject matter or practical duties of the supervision in more detail.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Spark Assessment Services Limited on 3 September 2026. The award value is £6,155, and the contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2029. UKRI used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The tender deadline was 13 August 2026 at 5pm. The requirement was not divided into lots in the published information. Small and medium-sized enterprises were considered suitable; voluntary, community and social enterprises were not. No award criteria or evaluation weighting is recorded in the process data, so the basis on which bids were compared cannot be described. The awarded supplier is identified, but no further detail of the contract deliverables or award rationale is stated.

For suppliers considering similar UKRI work, this award is evidence of demand for project-supervision services procured through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. A credible competitor would need to show that it can supervise projects in a way that meets UKRI’s requirement, and be eligible to participate through the relevant purchasing system. The selected supplier is an SME, and UKRI marked SMEs as suitable for this requirement, indicating that a smaller specialist provider can compete. The procurement data does not describe specific supervision tasks, technical qualifications, accreditations, staffing levels or experience requirements, so it gives no basis to claim that any particular specialist capability was decisive. Businesses active in project supervision should assess whether their service offer can address UKRI’s requirement when comparable work returns to market.
