Statutory audits and internal audits — procurement — tender

Innovasjon Norge (Innovation Norway)

The aim of the procurement is that Innovation Norway shall have auditing services — both statutory audits and internal audits. The procurement does not include consultancy services for tax and duties.
The procurement is divided into two parts that will be evaluated separately:
Part 1 — statutory audits
Part 2 — internal audits
It is important that tenderers clearly state whether the tender is for part 1, part 2, or both.
The mentioned auditing services have different roles and purposes and independence in the auditor role is a basic principle, cf. the Auditor Act, chapter 4. If the same tenderer submits the best tender in both competitions, the tenderer must formally withdraw from one competition and number two will be awarded the contract.
