Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process is led by the Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office, seeking independent financial audit services for a strategic communications project, valued at £25,000. The procurement method employed is selective, with the tender period concluding on 14th August 2020. The contract, which has been awarded to Deloitte LLP, is set to commence on 4th September 2020 and will last until 30th November 2020. This process falls under the accounting and auditing services industry category and is based in London, United Kingdom.

This tender presents opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in financial auditing and related services, enabling them to engage with government projects. The contract's value and the selective procurement method suggest that competitive, qualified firms may leverage this opportunity to expand their reach and establish a working relationship with a prominent public sector buyer. Businesses adept in compliance, financial transparency, and detailed audit processes would be particularly well-suited to pursue similar opportunities in the future.
