Summary of the contracting process

Kent Police procured internal audit services for its policing organisation. The work is identified as taking place in Kent, with a delivery address in Maidstone (ME15 9BZ).

The procurement is complete and was awarded to RSM UK Risk Assurance Services LLP. The award date was 19 October 2026. The contract runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2028 and is valued at £240,500. The buyer used a selective procedure to call off from a framework agreement. The submission deadline was 5 October 2026. Kent Police recorded that the opportunity was unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award confirms demand from Kent Police for internal audit services delivered through a framework call-off. A supplier seeking to compete for a similar requirement would need to be able to provide internal audit services at the scale and organisational level represented by this contract. The award provides evidence that RSM UK Risk Assurance Services LLP was selected for this requirement; it does not establish particular accreditations, technical methods or staffing requirements.
