Additional text

TKAT's preference is to appoint a single service provider for all requirements, with all staff employed in delivering the required work must be employed by the successful service provider.
Estimated contract value is £45,000 - £50,000 (+ VAT) per audit programme i.e. each school within the Trust will have an audit within the initial 2 year contract period.
The Contract will be awarded for an initial period of two (2) years with an option to extend for an additional period of two (2) years based on acceptable performance of the appointed service provider at the sole discretion of the Trust. Maximum contract period will therefore be four (4) years.
