## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Post Office Limited, a central government public authority, involved contracting FORVIS MAZARS LLP to conduct an 'ARA Metrics and Disclosures Review' for FY25. The process was carried out under the direct procurement method without competition, as it fell below threshold limits. With a value of up to £179,000, this service relates to accounting, auditing, and fiscal services, and is scheduled to be delivered by December 2025. The contract was officially signed on 26th June 2025 and covers the period from 1st September to 31st December 2025. Both the Post Office and FORVIS MAZARS are located in London.

This tender offers a significant business opportunity for large-scale audit and financial service enterprises, particularly those specialising in government contracts. As the work is valued up to £179,000, it is perfectly suited for agencies experienced in handling substantial financial disclosures and audits for public sector organizations. Companies with robust service delivery capabilities and experience in fiscal audits will find this avenue beneficial for expanding their portfolio in the public domain. Additionally, given the procurement method's direct nature without competition, being well-versed with compliance and prompt service provision would position them advantageously for future opportunities.
