IM&T Internal Audit Services

County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust (CDDFT) is seeking to engage a supplier to provide specialist IM&T Internal Audit services. The contract will run for three years, subject to satisfactory performance. At the Trust's discretion the contract may be extended, one year at a time, to a maximum of five years in total. In the past the IM&T Internal Audit service was part of the Trust's main Internal Audit provision; however, due to the specific nature of the work, the Trust wishes to tender the IM&T service separately. The successful Tenderer will be expected to work closely with the Trust's Internal Audit provider, on individual assignments as required and during the overall planning process with the potential for carrying out joint audits. The current internal audit service is provided by an NHS Consortium, Audit One.
