Description

Hertfordshire County Council (HCC) is looking to procure an external Internal Audit contractor to supplement the available 'in-house' Internal Audit resource for the delivery of the County's Shared Internal Audit Service (SIAS). The appointed contractor will: a) Assist SIAS with delivery of audit and consultancy projects in our local authority partner internal audit plans, b) Provide SIAS with access to specialist skills (e.g. IT and procurement audit), c) Have flexibility to take on and deliver internal audit and consultancy work at relatively short notice, and d) Provide SIAS with access to advice, knowledge and expertise through regular contract liaison and engagement to grow, develop and improve SIAS. Full details are in the Tender document set. Organisations should be aware that due to the nature of the Services provided, any Framework Agreement formed as a result of this procurement process shall be executed as a deed. Organisations should seek independent legal advice on the implications of this prior to submitting their bid, where appropriate.
