Description:
The County of Wetaskiwin (hereinafter referred to as the County) invites qualified accounting firms to submit proposals to provide professional auditing services to the municipality. The purpose of this request for proposal is to obtain all auditing services required by the County for its operations at a competitive value for service.

These audits are to be performed in accordance with 1) Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for Municipal Government established by the Public Sector Accounting Board of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants and 2) Reporting requirements as set out by the Province of Alberta in the Municipal Government Act and its regulations.

We wish to make it clear that this RFP is not motivated by concerns about our current accounting firm who provide excellent service to the County.

Assurance services are required for five financial reports.
  • County of Wetaskiwin No. 10
  • Municipal Financial Information Return
  • Family and Community Support Services Financial Information Review
  • Local Authorities Pension Plan Compliance Audit
  • Library Board

The County also provides accounting and management services for the following organizations:
  • Northeast Pigeon Lake Regional Sewer Commission
  • South Pigeon Lake Regional Wastewater Commission
  • Joint Economic Development Initiative

 Our current accounting firm audits each of these entities in conjunction with the County, but they do report to separate Boards.

The responsibilities of the auditors will be to provide an expression of an opinion on the external financial statements (not consolidated), Alberta Municipal Affairs Information, and discussion with respect to presentation and disclosure.
