The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, and the deadline for tender submissions is 11th January 2021. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically classified as internal audit services (CPV code 79212200), and will support operations based in London (postal code SW1H 0TL). This tender presents a valuable opportunity for internal audit service providers, particularly those with a strong history in the public sector and experience working with non-departmental bodies. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise organisations (VCSEs) are encouraged to apply, as the contracting authority is particularly interested in firms with a proven track record in delivering quality internal audit services. Interested bidders should prepare to develop a comprehensive three-year internal audit strategy, which must be presented to the Audit & Risk Committee in May 2021. ## Notice LGBCE (and in particular its Audit & Risk Committee) is seeking to invite tenders for internal audit services for three years with an optional extension of a further 12 months. We are looking for an established internal audit services provider with a proven track record of providing internal audit services within the public sector and ideally with experience of small, non-departmental bodies. The contract will commence on 1st April 2021 and the successful supplier would need to present a draft three-year internal audit strategy for LGBCE to the Audit & Risk Committee in May 2021.
