## Notice

DFID Uganda is seeking a suitably qualified service provider to implement its Fiduciary Risk and Safeguards (FRAS) programme. This programme will strengthen DFID Uganda's ability to identify, understand, address and manage the major financial and safeguard risks at programme and partner level within our PS100 million portfolio and secure value for money for the British tax payer. 2.1 DFID will provide funds over three years for the Fiduciary Risk and Safeguards (FRAS) programme. FRAS will provide assurance that all DFID Uganda partners are meeting DFID standards on fiduciary and safeguard systems and processes. This will help deliver the Government's commitment to 'ensure that every penny of existing Official Development Assistance (ODA) and all new ODA spend is and remains good value for money across the British Government - taking further steps to cut waste, introduce greater transparency, and deliver tough, independent scrutiny ' Additional information: All relevant information relating to this Contract Notice can be found on the DFID Supplier Portal where suppliers can register their interest directly.
