Request For Supply Arrangement for Internal Audit Services

Export Development Canada (EDC) has issued a solicitation for a supply arrangement to secure Internal Audit and Administrative Investigation Services through two distinct streams of work, aiming to establish a panel of up to three qualified firms per stream for future engagement. The solicitation, numbered 26-001 and titled Request For Supply Arrangement for Internal Audit Services, was posted on May 14, 2026, with a response deadline on the same day at 1:00 PM, indicating an immediate or highly accelerated procurement timeline. Respondents may submit proposals for one or both streams but must clearly designate the stream to which each submission applies. The solicitation falls under NAICS code 541219 and is issued by the Government of Canada through EDC, with Chidinma Ugoh designated as the primary point of contact for inquiries via solicitations@edc.ca. Bidders are directed to the Merx platform to access bidding documents, with potential fees applicable for download as outlined on the Merx pricing page. The intent is to create a flexible mechanism for EDC to rapidly mobilize specialized audit and investigative expertise as needed, ensuring alignment with federal governance and accountability standards. While other solicitations sharing the reference number 26-001 pertain to unrelated services across various public institutions—such as Medicaid reimbursement, fire alarm system replacements, depository services, health insurance brokering, and construction projects—this EDC solicitation is specifically focused on internal governance services and operates independently within the federal procurement framework.
