UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

North London Muslim Housing Association Limited is procuring external audit services. The requirement is for an independent audit firm to carry out the organisation’s annual audit of its financial statements. The appointed provider will assess the accuracy and completeness of financial records, compliance with applicable accounting standards and regulatory requirements, and the effectiveness of financial controls. This is a professional financial auditing services contract for a housing association based in London. Suppliers should be able to provide an independent external audit service covering the organisation’s reporting and control environment. The work is associated with the United Kingdom, with the buying organisation located in London.

The procurement reached tender: the buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It is a single-lot services contract with an estimated value of £250,000 excluding VAT, or £300,000 including VAT. Questions had to be submitted by 31 July 2026 at 5:00pm, and tenders were due by 14 August 2026 at 12:00 noon. The initial contract period is from 11 September 2026 to 11 September 2029, with an option for the authority to extend it by up to two years, subject to satisfactory performance; the maximum end date is 11 September 2031. Offers are evaluated on price at 60% and quality at 40%.

This opportunity suits an established audit practice with suitably qualified and experienced staff able to act independently for a housing association. Bidders need the capability to audit annual financial statements and provide assurance on financial accuracy, completeness and compliance with applicable accounting standards and regulatory requirements. Experience of reviewing financial controls is important, as the service includes assessing their effectiveness rather than only checking reported figures. The requirement is best suited to firms with the professional capacity to deliver a recurring annual audit over an initial three-year term and, if extended, for up to two additional years. Providers should be able to work with the governance, finance and regulatory reporting needs of a UK housing organisation.
