Norway – Accounting, auditing and fiscal services – Framework agreement internal audit services

The procurement is for a framework agreement for assistance with the internal audit function. A contract shall be signed with one tenderer. The agreement shall assist Norad's work with internal control, internal audit and performance management occurring in accordance with the law and regulations, best practice, relevant standards and frameworks for internal audits, as well as applicable instructions. The contract shall also provide access to external competence and a larger professional environment. The internal audit will report directly to Norad's Director and is an independent administration. The scope of work follows Norad's area of responsibility and comprises the entire entity, including assignments performed by external entities. Audits will be selected for risk based and carried out within risk management, performance management and internal control. Six to eight audits are planned annually, in addition to ad hoc assignments. The contract can also include internal control assistance. The internal audit will be responsible for the receipt and handling of signals, carried out by internal employees. The notification function is not included in the contract. The internal audit uses a systematic method to assist the Director in ensuring that Norad is operated in accordance with the management principles for government entities, cf. the governmental financial management regulations. The Directorate ́s risk picture is the basis for the choice of audits, which are determined in the annual audit plan approved by the Director. The internal audit is in dialogue with the organisation and, when needed, provides advice and guidance for performance management, internal control and risk management. There is a need for expertise for audits, consultancy assignments and support with the development and implementation of internal control, as well as the need for the audit plan, annual report and strategic guidance. The assignments will vary in nature, extent and complexity. Consultants must be able to work independently. Tenderers shall offer the assignment manager partner, team manager (operative coordinator) and multi-disciplinary delivery team with experience from internal audits and strategic consulting. The working language is Norwegian, and good English capabilities are required. Oppdragsgiver: Norad – Direktoratet for utviklingssamarbeid Type: cn-standard Kilde: TED Europa
