Provision of the Well Led Framework Review for NHS Foundation Trusts under Monitor‘s Guidance of the requirement of an Independent Reviewer every 3 years.
NHS Shared Business Services are looking to place a new framework which will focus on Audit & Review Services for Public Sector Bodies. Therefore NHS Shared Business Services are looking for Internal, External Auditors, Counter Fraud Teams and Independent Reviewers to work with both our core customers and the Wider Public Sector delivering High Quality Audit/Review Work and Best Value for Money.
Whilst the framework is looking for Optimum Combination of Quality and Price from Suppliers per unique Lot, please note that customers will be able to Bundle Service Areas Together at Mini Competition (i.e. Internal Audit and Counter Fraud).
Allows customers to call off directly against the Framework Agreement and select the supplier that is most appropriate for the specific requirements of the trust.
— Allows customers to run their own further competitions (using suppliers on the framework) in order to drive value, meet bespoke requirements, generate financial savings and saves customer time and resource when compared to a full in-house OJEU process.
