Summary of the contracting process

Kingdom Housing Association Limited is buying internal audit services for the Kingdom Group of Companies. The work provides independent, risk-based assurance on the effectiveness of governance, risk management and internal controls across Kingdom Housing Association Limited, Kingdom Support and Care, and Kingdom Initiatives. Coverage includes corporate governance, finance, human resources, new-build development, housing services, and asset management, repairs and maintenance. This is a professional audit and assurance service (CPV 79212200), delivered in Glenrothes, Fife. The requirement spans housing and care activities as well as development and property operations, so suppliers should be able to audit a range of organisational functions rather than a single financial area.

The buyer invited tenders through an open procedure. The requirement is arranged as one lot. The tender submission deadline was 6 November 2026 at 15:00 UTC; the award period was due to begin at that time. The initial contract term is four years, with an optional 12-month extension at the Association’s discretion, for a maximum term of five years. The estimated contract value is £70,000. The tender prohibits variant bids and requires electronic submission in English. Economic selection criteria and minimum requirements are set out in the Single Procurement Document. The process requires tenderers to provide the names and qualifications of staff assigned to the contract. Electronic payment is available and electronic invoicing is permitted.

This opportunity is suited to an internal audit provider able to deliver independent, risk-based assurance across a housing group with associated support and care and development operations. Relevant capability includes assessing governance, risk management and internal controls, alongside practical audit experience in finance, human resources, housing services, new-build development, and property asset management, repairs and maintenance. Suppliers will need staff with appropriate qualifications and the capacity to cover this varied portfolio over a multi-year engagement. The quality assessment includes a requirement for bidders to set out proposed community benefits, so providers should be able to develop and evidence suitable benefits as part of their offer. A single-lot arrangement means the scope is competed as one integrated service rather than divided into separate functional packages.
