Independence & Probity Statement
Our Commitment
RLA maintains strict independence in our advisory and assurance roles. We understand the critical importance of probity and integrity in procurement and governance contexts.
Separation of Roles
Where a formal assurance or audit role is required, we scope and separate responsibilities to preserve integrity. We will not act as both procurement adviser and probity auditor on the same engagement without clear separation and appropriate safeguards.
Conflict Management
We have clear conflict management processes and will disclose any potential conflicts before engagement. Our approach ensures transparency and maintains the highest standards of probity.
Why It Matters
For procurement to be defensible and stand up to scrutiny, independence and probity discipline are essential. Our commitment to these principles protects both our clients and the integrity of the procurement process.
