Summary of the contracting process

The Public Sector Audit Appointments Limited (PSAA), located in London, has completed a procurement process titled "Provision of independent technical audit-related advice". The process, initiated as a tender, falls under the services category and aims to provide specialist audit support. This was a limited procurement method due to the below-threshold nature, indicating limited competition. The contract, which started on 1st November 2025 and is set to conclude on 31st December 2026, with potential annual reviews for extension up to 2028, involves financial consultancy services across various UK regions, ensuring comprehensive coverage of the United Kingdom.

This tender represents significant growth opportunities for businesses in financial consultancy, particularly those with expertise in audit-related services. Large-scale firms, such as the awarded suppliers Karen McConnell and Stephen Warren, are examples of businesses that can successfully compete in such tenders. Companies looking to expand their footprint across multiple UK regions and offer specialised advisory services to public authorities, especially in sub-central government sectors, would find this contract beneficial for business growth and network expansion. By participating in similar procurement processes, businesses can establish long-term relationships with public sector entities and secure continuous engagements.
