Tender Details

Tenders are invited for Terms of Reference for a Financial and Accounting Gap Audit against the European Union (Eu) Nine - Pillar Assessment Model for Crosq as Requesting to be Entrusted with Implementation of an Eu Budgeted Project

Article 154 of the Financial Regulation (‘FR-) applicable to the general budget of the European Union (‘EU-) sets out the methods of implementing the budget, including ‘indirect management-. Under indirect management, the Commission can entrust the implementation of Union funds or budgetary guarantees to the countries, organisations and bodies (further referred to as ‘entities-) indicated in Article 62 of the FR. CROSQ is considered one of these entities

When such entities manage EU funds, they are however, required to guarantee a level of protection of the EU-s financial interests equivalent to that required under the FR. More specifically, they must meet requirements with regard to Nine ‘Pillars-. These pillars relate to:

· the internal control system ;

· the accounting system;

· an independent external audit;

as well as rules and procedures for:

· providing financing from EU funds through grants;

· procurement;

· financial instruments;

and also:

· exclusion from access to funding;

· publication of information on recipients;

· protection of personal data.

Entities such as CROSQ wishing to work with EU funds under the indirect management mode must, therefore, undergo a comprehensive Nine Pillar assessment.
