This opportunity in a nutshell
What we need
Waitemata District Health Board (DHB) is seeking to appoint a Ministry of Health designated auditing agency (DAA) to complete a certification audit against the Health and Disability Services Standards NZS 8134:2008; this is to ensure that Waitemata District Health Board meets the required service standards for certification under the Health and Disability Services (Safety) Act 2001.
We want proposals which present a clear methodology and practical plan for conducting the certification audit and producing a clear Audit Report that reflects the requirements of DAAs in the Ministry of Health (MoH) Designated Auditing Agency (DAA) Handbook; Ministry of Health Auditor Handbook (revised 2016); For Health and Disability Services Standards NSZ 8134:2008.

What we don’t want
Proposals from parties who are not Ministry of Health designated auditing agencies.

What’s important to us?
We are looking for a credible DAA that has strong proven capability, experience and resource to undertake a time and cost effective Certification audit in a large DHB. Our expectation is that the post-audit report is clear, providing clarity of any corrective actions and reasons for these; the report must also be delivered in a timely manner. Ideally we want the on-site audit completed in the final week of November 2016 or the first week of December 2016.

Why should you bid?
This is an opportunity to demonstrate to Waitemata District Health Board that you can provide a professional, highly time and cost effective auditing programme.
