The Australian National Audit Office's (ANAO) purpose is to support accountability and transparency in the Australian Government sector through independent reporting to the Parliament, and thereby contribute to improved public sector performance.

The Auditor-General and the staff of the ANAO play an important role in the process of public accountability by providing the Parliament, the Executive, and Management with an independent assessment of the operations of public sector organisations.

The ANAO provides its principal client, the Parliament, with approximately 50 published audit reports annually. These reports include performance audits and financial statement audits. The ANAO also has a close working relationship with the JCPAA which reviews the audit reports on a quarterly basis.

Through the audit and related services provided to the Parliament by the Auditor-General and the ANAO, the Australian public can have confidence that the Auditor-General is examining and reporting on the actions of Commonwealth entities and whether public resources are being used economically, efficiently, effectively, and ethically.

In July 2022 the ANAO approached the market to establish the ‘Professional and associated Services’ panel arrangement (SON3921486). The panel commenced 28 March 2023, with the estimated approach to market to refresh the panel to be undertaken in July of each calendar year.

Accordingly, the ANAO invites suitably qualified Supplier to submit a tender for the Provision of Professional and Associated Services.

The purpose of this Request for Tender is to refresh the existing Panel to ensure it continues to meet the current and future needs of ANAO.

Existing panellists do not need to reapply, unless applying for a service category(s) that they are not previously approved as providing.
