AWARDEDProcurement notice · National Audit OfficeRef ocds-h6vhtk-03c52e
The National Audit Office (NAO) is the UK's independent public spending watchdog. We support Parliament in holding government to account and we help improve public services through our high-quality audits work.
NAO sought an External Auditor who will be expected to audit the financial years ending 31 March 2025, 2026, and 2027 to an appropriate timetable. The NAO aims to have its Annual Report and Accounts (which include the financial statements) ready for publication in June each year following the 31 March year end.
