Internal Audit

This solicitation, identified as CIC-160242-A, is a reissuance of a prior requirement and seeks qualified vendors from within the Internal Audit PASS Supply Arrangement, specifically those who qualified under Stream 1: Internal Audit, to perform an independent assessment of a claims administrator’s risk-informed internal audit framework and fraud prevention and detection framework as applied to health benefits under a Departmental Program administered by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada. The work is scoped to evaluate the design, effectiveness, and maturity of these frameworks, with performance expected to occur within the National Capital Region of Canada. The anticipated contract period is approximately six months, beginning on July 22, 2026, and concluding by December 31, 2026. Only pre-qualified suppliers who have been directly invited by the Contracting Authority are eligible to submit proposals, and all submissions must be received by the deadline of July 14, 2026, at 2:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time via email to the designated point of contact. Proposals may be submitted in either English or French, and all respondents must meet minimum security requirements, including Designated Organization Screening for corporate eligibility and Secret-level clearances for personnel involved in the engagement. The Government of Canada encourages applications from minority-owned businesses to support equity and diversity in procurement. The solicitation is competitive but restricted to PASS Supply Arrangement holders, and documentation distribution is handled directly by the contracting authority, not through CanadaBuys. While detailed evaluation criteria, pricing structures, and contract value are not provided in the available materials, offerors are advised that the Crown reserves the right to negotiate with any supplier. All inquiries must be directed to Jean-Philippe Tambeau at the provided email address, and vendors must carefully review the solicitation documents as amendments may have been made since the original solicitation under CIC-160242.
