Finding Details

2 CFR section 200.303 requires that non-Federal entities receiving Federal awards establish and maintain internal control over the Federal awards that provides reasonable assurance that the non Federal entity is managing the Federal awards in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal awards. The School District employs a food service management company to oversee and conduct the activities of the food service department. The School District paid a lump sum to the food service management company each month, but there was no evidence that the School District reviewed any of the supporting invoices to verify amounts paid were for allowable activities and costs.
