# Appointment of an internal auditor for OFP Prolocus

OFP Prolocus is the pension fund for local authorities in Flanders. It manages supplementary pensions for contract staff of 770 affiliated local and provincial authorities; pension administration is entrusted to two external service providers, and an iBevek is being prepared for asset management. The procurement appoints an independent internal auditor, a legally required key function. The auditor assesses whether the fund operates effectively, reliably and in compliance, including the quality of internal controls, risk management and governance. The function is incompatible with roles that could compromise independence, other key functions under the cited Belgian provision, and the statutory auditor role. The canonical notice gives a 6 November 2026 deadline; the current official workspace page returned only its portal shell, so no further terms or value were available from that page.
