## Summary

Plymouth Community Homes (PCH) is currently seeking bids for its Internal Audit Tender, aimed at providing internal audit services within the community housing sector. The procurement process is active, with the tender period closing on 22nd January 2021. The contract, valued at £50,000, is expected to commence on 1st April 2021 and run until 31st March 2024. This opportunity is classified under services and focuses on securing a suitably qualified contractor to work alongside PCH’s Executive Management Team, Audit and Risk Committee, and external auditors to ensure an effective internal audit service is maintained.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in internal audit services, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies capable of providing experienced professionals in internal auditing will find this opportunity particularly suitable, as ongoing performance reviews by the Audit and Risk Committee will influence contract continuity over the three-year term. Overall, this tender is a vital chance for qualified firms to contribute to the governance of Plymouth Community Homes and to enhance their growth through long-term collaboration with a community-focused organisation.

## Notice

Plymouth Community Homes (PCH) is seeking bids from suitably qualified and highly experienced contractors for Internal Audit Services. PCH has an out-sourced internal audit function and therefore the contractor will be required to ensure that there is an effective internal audit service in place. This should be done in conjunction with the Executive Management Team (EMT), Audit and Risk Committee and our external auditors (KPMG). The requirements set out in the specification are minimum requirements and tender responses should set out in more detail proposals for meeting the internal audit service requirements. It is intended that the internal auditor will be appointed for a period of up to three years, subject to an annual review of the internal auditor's performance by the Audit and Risk Committee.
