## Summary

Staffordshire County Council procured internal audit services for delivery in the West Midlands. The requirement covers auditing services (CPV 79212000), called off from the NHS SBS10517 audit services framework. The work is an internal audit assignment for the council, requiring a supplier able to provide audit expertise and deliver the agreed services within the council’s operating context. The named buyer is Staffordshire County Council, based in Stafford, England. The procurement is categorised as a service rather than goods or works. It was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so the requirement is relevant to established audit practices and specialist firms with the resources to deliver public-sector internal audit work.

This procurement has been completed through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 1 July 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded on 20 July 2026 to TIAA Ltd for £230,800 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 20 July 2026 to 9 September 2026. The award is active and the tender is complete. Staffordshire County Council selected one supplier for the internal audit services. The award record identifies the requirement as a single service procurement delivered in the West Midlands. The process therefore provides a clear example of this buyer using the NHS SBS10517 framework to source a defined internal audit assignment rather than running an open competition.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a specific public-sector demand for short, defined internal audit assignments in the West Midlands. A credible competitor would need demonstrable internal audit capability, staff able to work within a local authority environment, and the capacity to mobilise and complete an assignment within a tightly bounded service period. Experience of public-sector governance, risk, controls and assurance would help a firm understand the likely operating context, while familiarity with framework call-off procedures would be important for reaching the buyer through the same route. The opportunity was considered suitable for SMEs, indicating that a specialist audit practice with appropriate delivery capacity could be competitive when comparable requirements are considered.
