The Salt Lake City Department of Airports is soliciting Statements of Qualification and Experience for a professional services agreement to provide on-call, as-needed co-sourced internal audit services at the Salt Lake City International Airport. Starting January 1, 2027, the selected independent audit firm will collaborate with the Chief Financial Officer to develop enterprise risk profiles and risk-based annual audit plans, perform audit fieldwork, and support recommendation follow-ups. All work must be conducted in accordance with the IIA International Professional Practices Framework and, where applicable, GAGAS Yellow Book standards and ACFE practice guidance for fraud indicators. The contract is structured on a task-order basis with no guaranteed minimum volume of work, and compensation is negotiated on an individual project basis. To be considered responsive, respondents must hold an active CPA license, possess at least five years of experience in airport internal audit services, and be in good standing with the City. Evaluation is based on proposed staffing and team qualifications (40%), demonstrated project experience (40%), and organization and licensing (20%). Selected consultants must maintain significant insurance coverage, including $2,000,000 for commercial general and professional liability, with general liability increasing to $5,000,000 for those requiring access to the Airport Operations Area. The agreement includes strict compliance with federal nondiscrimination laws, Utah state employment verification laws, and the Government Records Access and Management Act. The City maintains the right to terminate the agreement for convenience or cause upon seven calendar days written notice.
