Introduction
UNDP Viet Nam is looking for 01 qualified consultancy firm/institute/organization for a Long-term Agreement for Spot Checks under UNDP Programme Cycle 2022-2026 and 2027-2031.
The HACT framework was first adopted in 2005 by UNDP, UNICEF, UNFPA and WFP, pursuant to United Nations General Assembly Resolution 56/201 on the triennial policy review of operational activities for development of the United Nations system. The HACT framework represents a common operational (harmonized) framework for transferring cash to government and non-governmental national Implementing Partners and Responsible Parties (if applicable) (hereafter called as IP/RPs), irrespective of whether these partners work with one or multiple United Nation agencies. It also represents a shift from assurance for cash transfers derived from project level controls and audits towards a method of assurance derived from risk/system-based assessments and audits.
The primary objective of spot check is to determine whether the funds transferred to IPs were used for their intended purposes and in accordance with the IP/RP’s rules, procedures, and agreements with UNDP. Spot Checks are performed to assess the accuracy of financial records for cash transfers to IP/RPs, status of the programme (through a review of financial information), and whether there have been any significant changes to applicable internal controls. The spot check is not an audit.
