## Summary

Inverness College UHI has completed a procurement process for the provision of internal audit services. This contract was managed through a limited procurement method, as part of a call-off from the existing APUC Framework PFB1040 AP for Audit and Tax Services, specifically under Lot 1. The procurement was concluded without the prior publication of a call for competition, justified by the supplier's top ranking on the framework and technical requirements. This contract, valued at £18,000, was awarded to Wbg Services LLP on 11th July 2025. The services fall under the education category, with delivery primarily within the UKM region, specifically in Inverness. The procurement method was necessitated due to the technical specificity and the framework's guidelines.

This procurement presents significant growth opportunities, particularly for businesses specialising in audit and tax consulting services. Given the nature of the contract as a call-off from a framework agreement, companies like Wbg Services LLP, which are part of such frameworks, may find opportunities for competitive advantage and steady work. SMEs with the capability to deliver specialised and technically demanding services are especially well-suited for similar future tenders, as they often align with the nuanced requirements typical of public sector contracts. Engaging in these processes can also afford businesses the chance to establish a strong reputation and build robust relationships within the public sector.
