The national youth development agency requires a service provider to deliver two audit-related work streams: first, collecting, organising and reconciling supporting evidence for project disbursement payments made to 10 non-profit implementing partners under the presidential youth employment initiative (project period june 2025 to 31 may 2026), and second, performing a determination test on 7,336 travel transactions worth r38,157,378.41 Classified as irregular expenditure by agsa. The team must be led by a chartered accountant (SA) registered with saica and irba, and the work is urgent, fitting audit deadlines. The most consequential bidder consideration is meeting the mandatory team qualification requirements, as failure to provide proof of registration and qualifications makes the submission non-responsive.
