## Summary

The procurement process is being conducted by Silva Homes Limited, based in Bracknell, England, for an external audit and associated services contract valued at £117,000. This open tender will be active until 20 November 2020, with the contract period starting from 1 January 2021 and ending on 30 June 2025. Businesses interested in participating must submit their proposals via email to Aisha Adekunle-Lawal by the deadline, and all relevant documents are made available for review.

This opportunity presents significant growth potential for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in auditing services. Given the nature of the contract, firms with experience in providing external audits, especially to housing associations or similar organisations, would be particularly well-suited to compete. The long contract duration also suggests an opportunity for establishing a sustained working relationship with the buyer.
