Internal audit services will be put out to tender as a procurement ring for the five subscribers mentioned in this invitation to tender. Each Contracting Entity will be awarded its own procurement contract with the service providers selected in the procurement procedure. A framework agreement for the provision of internal audit services will be established in the procurement. The framework agreement concerns general internal audit and assurance services and will select a maximum of three (3) suppliers submitting the most economically advantageous tender. Two (2) suppliers submitting the most economically advantageous tender will be selected for the contract to be awarded to Tampereen Tilapalvelut Oy. This is described and specified by subscriber in more detail in the appendices to the invitation to tender. The framework agreement ensures the support of the management and administration of the participating organisations in the assessment and development of risk management, internal control and good governance. The contract enables the outsourcing of all or part of the internal audit function, in addition to which the contractors can acquire expert resources to support their own audit activities. The procurement targets internal control, risk management and good governance assessments, process and project audits, IT/ICT data protection and information security audits, regulatory and compliance audits, responsibility audits, financial process audits, fraud and irregularities assessments, audits and investigations, and internal audit advisory services (e.g. quality assessment, function development and training). The procurement is described in more detail in the tender documents below. The estimated annual value of the acquisition, excluding VAT, is EUR 155 000.
