## Summary

Locala Community Partnerships, an independent Community Interest Company, completed the procurement process to contract internal audit services for the NHS community services they provide across West Yorkshire and Manchester. The procurement was conducted as an open procedure with MIAA (Mersey Internal Audit Agency) being awarded the contract pending final signature, set to begin on 1st August 2025 and extend through 31st July 2028, with the possibility of a two-year extension. The award, valued at £162,900, was facilitated through an open procedure. Key dates include the award notice published on 18th July 2025 and a standstill period ending on 29th July 2025. The tender falls under the services category and is designated for internal audit services.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for growth, especially for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in financial auditing and consultancy services, given that three of the final stage bids were from SMEs. Businesses adept at delivering high-quality, compliant audit services within the UK's public sector regulations stand to benefit. With a competitive tender process focusing on service quality and incorporating social value assessments, firms with robust governance, risk management, and control frameworks are well-positioned to compete in similar future procurements. The contract offers a stable engagement with potential extensions, providing a pathway to build long-term client relationships and expand audit service portfolios.
