## Summary

The procurement process pertains to the "CHIC Compliance Audit Services Framework 2021," managed by Communities and Housing Investment Consortium Limited (CHIC) in the auditing services sector. This framework will perform various internal policy compliance audits, essential for ensuring contractors adhere to relevant regulations, and spans a contract period from December 1, 2021, to November 30, 2025. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, with the tender successfully awarded on November 5, 2021, and a total contract value of £150 million. The services are expected to be delivered across the United Kingdom and other listed territories.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in auditing and compliance services that can demonstrate expertise in the social housing sector and knowledge of the Housing Regulator's standards. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are particularly suited to participate, though all businesses with relevant qualifications are encouraged to compete. With the long contract duration and significant financial backing, companies positioned to deliver high-quality audit services could see considerable growth and establish long-term relationships within the housing sector.

## Notice

The framework will provide a range of internal policy compliance and site portfolio audits along with site contractor assurance audits, as applicable. Audit work should be carried out to a professional standard by appropriately qualified personnel, including demonstrable knowledge of Registered Social Landlords, the Housing Regulator and their Regulatory Framework and Standards. The audit process will be an integral part of management systems and control, to ensure that works are completed to a defined scope/specification of works in line with the member's requirements whilst complying with legislative and member policy requirements.
