A list of CPAs/CPA firms that are interested in offering
audit services to state agencies and local governmental entities will be
maintained on a calendar year basis and posted to the OSA website to allow easy
access by state agencies and local governmental entities. The listing is a
mechanism to notify state agencies and local governmental entities of CPAs/CPA
firms that are interested in offering audit services and have certified to the
OSA that they have met certain requirements of regulatory agencies and
applicable auditing standards.
To be included on this list CPAs/CPA firms must complete a
registration form and return it along with the required attachment to the OSA.
The following list applies to the registration process:
(a) CPAs/CPA firms must register annually
with the OSA.
(b) If a CPA firm has
multiple offices, each office wishing to be included on the list must
register.
(c) To be included on the
list of registered CPAs/CPA firms, all prior contract audits under the purview
of the OSA must have been submitted within the contract requirements.
(d) Registration forms will not be processed
by the OSA prior to November 1 preceding the calendar year of
registration.
(e) Registration
forms received by the OSA during a calendar year will be processed within 15
days of receipt and the CPA/CPA firm will be placed on the list of registered
CPAs/CPA firms if warranted.
(f)
Being placed on the OSA's list of registered CPAs/CPA firms in no way assures a
CPA/CPA firm of being awarded a contract by a state agency or local
governmental entity.
(g) Multi-year
contracts are not prohibited.
(h)
While the registration form submitted by the CPA/CPA firm will be subject to
the public information statutes, the only information that will be posted to
the OSA website will be the CPA/CPA firm name, contact person, mailing address,
phone number, fax number and e-mail address.
(i) Being included on the OSA list of
registered CPAs/CPA firms does not signify any level of assurance of the
quality of work of the CPA/CPA firm by the OSA.
