Information Technology Audit Advisory Services

Queen’s University is seeking proposals for Information Technology Audit Advisory Services under solicitation number Q-2026-032-PF, with a submission deadline of Thursday, July 16, 2026, at 3:00 PM ET. The contract aims to secure external expertise to support the university’s Internal Audit department with project-based services in IT audit, cybersecurity, privacy, and related technical domains on an as-needed basis. While most work will be conducted remotely, proponents may be required to be physically present on campus when necessary. A key responsibility of the selected proponent is to collaborate with Internal Audit, IT Services, and other university stakeholders to design and implement a multi-year, risk-based IT Audit Roadmap. Proposals must be submitted via the Queen’s Bonfire portal, and the solicitation timeline includes a question deadline and addenda issuance date both set for July 7, 2026, followed by a 48-hour rectification period and up to 30 days of contract negotiation, with an anticipated agreement execution in September 2026. The solicitation is issued by Queen’s University and not a federal agency, despite the incorrect classification in the metadata as a federal organization. The primary point of contact for inquiries is Angela Yao, Contracting Authority, reachable via email and phone. The RFP timetable is subject to change at Queen’s discretion, and responses must be submitted through the specified online portal only. All business days are defined as days when Queen’s University is open for normal operations. The contract does not have a set aside designation or NAICS code listed, and the place of performance is not explicitly defined beyond the expectation that some in-person work may occur at Queen’s campus.
