Cases / Office of the Auditor General
Case study
How Office of the Auditor General actually buys
Audit services — performance and financial audit delivery.
A mixed record. 39.0% no-tender, the rest competed. Run both plays: competitive discipline on the posted opportunities, relationship positioning for the direct-award stream.
Award sizes suit small and mid-size firms: many contracts, fast cycles, and responsiveness beats depth in most of them.
