Introduction
Yayasan Plan International
Indonesia (YPII), a national affiliated entity of Plan International Inc., has
been working in Indonesia since 1969. Plan International is a child rights and
humanitarian organisation that focuses on promoting equality for girls at all
times including in times of crisis. In
response to series of powerful earthquakes at magnitude of 5,9 M to 7,0 M that struck
Lombok islands from July 29th to 19 August 2018, YPII quickly
mobilised its resources to respond to humanitarian needs on the ground. Following
its Rapid Needs Assessment, YPII implemented an emergency response period for 6
months in North Lombok and West Lombok. With the support from The Government of
the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HK SAR) and Plan International
Hong Kong, YPII has enabled to complete a 9-week rapid emergency response
started from 24 September 2018 to 14 December 2018. The emergency project
focused on delivering Non-Food Items (NFIs) comprising Shelter Kits (tarpaulin,
ropes, blankets, and mats) and Hygiene Kits (standard household sanitary and
personal hygiene kits) to 3,000 the most affected families in two affected
sub-districts in North Lombok district. Yayasan Plan International Indonesia wishes to
engage the services of an audit firm for the purpose of auditing the Emergency
Response implemented specifically funded by HK SAR in Lombok Indonesia as
stipulated in the agreement between YPII and Plan Hong Kong (Funding Approval
Document/FAD YPI100009). YPII has for the audit period obtained a grant of 2,916,000
HKD (317,232 EUR) from the donors (HK SAR and Plan Hong Kong). The audit shall
be carried out in accordance with the Hong Kong Standards on Auditing 700
issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants[1]

assignment also includes an engagement to perform agreed-upon procedures
regarding financial information in accordance with International Standard on
Related Services, ISRS 4400 in accordance with the terms and review areas
listed in section II. The audit shall be carried out
by an external, independent and qualified auditor. The auditor shall be
registered and have a license with the IFAC Member body in the country. Contractual
agreement between YPII and the selected audit firm will need to be reviewed and
approved by Plan Hong Kong before commencing the work and specific
consideration will be given to the agreed method of payment that accommodates
the nature of assignment and potential extra revisions upon request of donor beyond
the contractual period. Objectives
