Continuing Services: Co-Sourcing Internal Audit Services

Volusia County has a need for internal audit co-sourcing services to help build on the accomplishments of the existing Internal Auditing Department by providing additional subject matter expertise or resources when needed. Volusia County has an Internal Auditing Department under the management of the Internal Auditor. The Department from time to time requires outside assistance to complete unusually large, time-sensitive, or specialized projects. Specifically, the firms engaged under the proposed contracts will be requested to assist with auditing services for a variety of projects, including, operational, information technology, construction audits, performance audits, and/or advisory services. Services must be consistent with applicable industry standards including, but not limited to, those established by the Global Internal Audit Standards or the Government Auditing Standards. The County expects the selected firm to provide an independent and objective approach that will strengthen internal controls and improve the County's operations. The scope of work will be determined by the approved annual Internal Audit Plan and may include, but is not limited to, areas such as: Information Technology (I.T.) general controls, cybersecurity, construction audits, claims management, airport rental car agencies, and airport landside and airside tenant agreements. It is the intent of the County to award multiple contracts based on the respondent's answers to this solicitation. Approved audit plans and audit reports are available on the County's website at: www.volusia.org/auditor .
