Description
AI GeneratedThe Town of Hyde Park, Vermont, seeks proposals from qualified firms of Certified Public Accountants to audit its financial statements. The selected auditor must express an opinion on the fair presentation of the town's financial statements in conformity with GASB standards and publish one digital PDF report. Eligible applicants include USA-based onshore CPA firms with offsite work capabilities. Proposers must divide submissions into a technical proposal—detailing firm qualifications, peer review results, staff experience, similar engagements, and audit methodology—and a cost proposal covering total maximum yearly pricing and progress billing structures. Applicants must submit proposals by 4:00 PM on Thursday, November 20, 2026, to Finance Director Jennifer Tricou via email or online, and direct all pre-bid questions to her. The Town evaluates proposals based on technical qualifications, audit approach, and price, though cost will not serve as the primary factor. The initial contract term spans three fiscal years ending June 30 of 2028, 2029, and 2030, with an option to extend for three additional years through June 30, 2033 upon Selectboard consent.
