The exercise is expected to enthrone transparency and accountability in the management of Nigeria\u2019s oil, gas and mining revenues especially at this moment when issues of corporate governance and accountability in the sector have become a matter of national concerns.<\/p>\n<p>NEITI\u2019s process of selecting the auditors followed an international competitive bid which includes public advertisement in both local and international media. During the bidding exercise for oil and gas, a total of 22 companies expressed interests out of which eight\u00a0 met the requirements of both NEITI Act and Public Procurement Act in relation to the job and were offered the bid documents to submit technical and financial proposals.<\/p>\n<p>The companies bidded with technical partners with expertise in various sections of the industries. The same procurement procedure was strictly followed in selecting the consultant for the solid minerals industry audit. The opening of EOIs, technical and financial bids were observed by large pool of media and civil society organizations, as well as representative of the bidding firms.<\/p>\n<p>The technical and financial evaluations were carried out by a seven-man committee under a rigorous quality and cost-based procurement selection methods.
