Notice summary: In order to maintain robust financial control in a changing environment there is the need to design and deliver a new financial control framework for the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS).

â&#128;¢ Report: Summarising â&#128;&#156;As-isâ&#128;&#157; process and documenting future process including guidance on implementation and operation of the process by staff. This will include implementing opportunities for process optimisation, identifying and mitigating areas of potential risk / control gaps, controls with potential to rationalise and the source of assurance for controls operated;

â&#128;¢ Process Flows: detailed process maps;

â&#128;¢ Benchmark: Table highlighting specific gaps / improvement opportunities vs good practices.
