This tender falls under the industry category of housing and community amenities and is located in Edinburgh, UK. The procurement process is at the tender stage, with the submission deadline set for 17th December 2018. Interested parties must submit their bids electronically, and the chosen service provider will be tasked with delivering independent appraisals of various activities within the housing association, ensuring effective risk management and governance. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in auditing and accountancy, particularly those that do not currently provide audit services (other than internal audit services) to Hanover. Bidders should demonstrate relevant experience through previous audit work and hold the necessary qualifications and accreditations. The contract is structured for an initial three-year term, with the potential for a two-year extension, making it an attractive option for firms looking to establish a long-term relationship with a reputable housing association. ## Notice The internal audit service provider will be responsible for providing an objective, independent appraisal of all Hanover's activities, financial and otherwise. They will have a role in advising and reporting to management, the Chief Executive and the Board providing them with assurance on the arrangements for risk management, control and governance. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The scope of internal audit work should cover all operational and management controls and should provide opinion on the whole system. Any audit should also examine the arrangements by which Policy decisions are made, monitored and reviewed and any related risks identified. The internal auditor will be required to give an annual opinion to the Board on the adequacy and effectiveness of the arrangements for risk management, control and governance and for economy, efficiency and effectiveness (value for money) within HSHA, and the extent to which these arrangements can be relied upon. Renewal: The initial 3 year contract maybe extended for a further 2 years. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV337297 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 16 Nov 2018 | | Submission deadline | 17 Dec 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Contract is for 3 years with the option to extend a further 2 years so a notice maybe published in November 2021 or in November 2023 if the contract is extended for the further 2 years. | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £125,000 | | Lots value | £125,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HANOVER (SCOTLAND) HOUSING ASSOCIATION | | Locality | EDINBURGH | | Post town | Edinburgh | | Postcode | EH7 4NS | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM1 East Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM13 City of Edinburgh | | Local authority | City of Edinburgh | | Electoral ward | Leith Walk | | Westminster constituency | Edinburgh North and Leith | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79212200 - Internal audit services ## Release History - 16 Nov 2018 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV337297 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=NOV337297&idx=1 16th November 2018 - ITT - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=NOV337297&idx=2 16th November 2018 - ESPD internal audit - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV337297 provision of internal audit services - The internal audit service provider will be responsible for providing an objective, independent appraisal of all Hanover's activities, financial and otherwise.
