European Union, Represented By The European Commission Tender Result

The Audit framework contract (FWC) will be used to contract auditors for audits or agreed upon procedures. Examples of assignments can be found at https://ec.europa.eu/international-partnerships/audit-and-control_en. The entities subject to audits or verifications are the beneficiaries of contracts financed by external aid programs managed mainly by DG INTPA, DG NEAR and the FPI. These controls can take place at the premises of the beneficiaries and/or remotely. The FWC will be awarded to several tenderers for a duration of two years, with the possibility of a two year extension. The FWC will be concluded with a zero amount. The FWC is based on reopening of competition: contractors receive invitations to submit an offer for specific assignments within a short deadline (minimum 14 calendar days). Following an evaluation of the offers, contracts for the specific assignments will be awarded to the most economically advantageous offer. Specific contracts will be global-price contracts.
