Finding Details

Findings and Questioned Costs – Major Federal Programs Finding 2023-001: Internal Control over Compliance and Compliance with Monitoring Federal Programs: ALN 93.575 American Recovery Plan Act Criteria: In accordance with the grant agreement and Division of Early Learning (DEL) Program Guidance 240.21, COVID-19 Crisis, the Coalition is required to perform sampling and monitoring of service providers who receive subgrants under the American Recovery Plan Act (ARPA). Sampling and monitoring are to be completed on a quarterly basis using DEL provided sampling guidance.

Cause: Sampling and monitoring of the providers was delayed due to personnel turnover at the Coalition. Effect: The Coalition did not meet grant agreement and DEL Program Guidance requirements related to ARPA subgrant funding. Recommendation: We recommend the Coalition establish procedures to allocate resources to ensure that compliance with monitoring requirements is performed timely. Management’s Response: See Management’s Corrective Action Plan beginning on page 23.
