Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for internal audit services has been concluded by Woven Housing Association Ltd, a public law body based in Belfast, UK. The relevant industry category is auditing services, with the procurement covering a comprehensive audit of financial, governance, and operational records over a period of three years, potentially extendable by two additional years. This process, initially tendered in February 2024 and awarded in May 2025, involved an open procedure overseen by Wbg Services LLP from Glasgow as the supplier. Key stages included the tender being active until March 2024, after which the contract was signed on 29th May 2025, valued at £47,000 GBP.

This tender provided significant opportunities for businesses in the auditing sector, particularly those specialising in internal and statutory audit services. With a total of five bids, including one from an SME, the open procurement method encouraged wide participation. The service demands a high calibre of quality, weighted at 60%, making it ideal for firms with strong professional credentials in audit services to establish reputable ties with public housing bodies. This reflects a critical opportunity for business growth and expansion in the financial services industry, especially for those enterprises seeking a foothold in comprehensive public service engagement.
