Responsiblity/ Duty of care while conducting Procurement Audit

[PPTP Group]

In law of tort, a duty of care is a legal obligation imposed on an
individual requiring that they adhere to a reasonable standard of care
while performing any acts that could foresee ably harm others. In
order to proceed with an action in negligence, the plaintiff must be
able to articulate a duty of care imposed by law which the defendant
has breached. In turn, breaching a duty may subject an individual to
liability in tort.

In Procurement Audit ,this is referred to as the responsibility or
the legal obligation of a registered Procurement Auditor /Chartered
Procurer or registered Auditing organization/firm to avoid acts or
omissions (which can be reasonably foreseen) to be likely to cause
harm to others ,including but not limited to his clients.
Duty of care in a Procurement Audit assignment is owed by a
Chartered Procurer in correctly preparing a firm's or Public
Procurement Audit report, by a Procurement auditor in confirming a
firm's or Government Procurement position/status, by a director to
shareholders in husbanding the enterprise's resources, by a
manufacturer to consumers for the safety of product, and by every
party to a contract to the other contracting parties.
