EXTERNAL AUDIT 2022-2024

Ref. C 197/CS/CADP-22

The overall objective of the Commercial Agriculture Development Project (CADP) is to foster commercial agriculture in Angola through a set of integrated investments in hard and soft infrastructure and to facilitate an enabling environment for private participation in the sector. By simultaneously intervening along multiple dimensions, the project aims to remove key constraints to business formation and strengthen the platform for growth in high-potential value chains.

The objective of the audit of the Project Financial Statements (PFSs) is to enable the auditor to express a professional opinion(s) on the financial position of the project at the end of each fiscal year, and on funds received and expenditures incurred for the relevant accounting period.

The auditor is required to prepare and produce for each annual audit:

  • the audit report containing the auditor professional opinion on the Project Financial Statements, and
  • the Management Letter reporting on the major internal control weaknesses as well as managerial deficiencies and making relevant and practical recommendations for improvement.

The audit engagement will be for three (03) years, subject to annual review. Consequently, the contract will have an initial duration (Base Period) of one year, renewable (Option Period 1, 2) as decided by the parties (maximum duration of 3 years). This extension will also be conditional on performance.

The indicative consultant’s effort for this assignment is three (3) men-months.

The detailed Terms of Reference (TOR) for the assignment can be obtained at the email address given below.

The Commercial Agriculture Development Project (CADP) of the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries now invites eligible consulting Firms (“Consultants”) to indicate their interest in providing the Services.

Regulations”), setting forth the World Bank’s policy on conflict of interest.

In the case of a joint venture, all the partners in the joint venture shall be jointly and severally liable for the entire contract, if selected.
