Finding Details

2024-001: PROCUREMENT Type: Considered a material weakness in internal control over compliance/noncompliance Program: ALN 93.696 Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHC) Expansion Grants Criteria: Per 2 CFR section 200.318, the non-Federal entity, “…must maintain and use documented procedures for procurement transactions under a Federal award or subaward, including for acquisition of property or services. These documented procurement procedures must be consistent with State, local, and tribal laws and regulations and the standards identified in §§ 200.317 through 200.327.” Condition: During testing, it was noted that the CMHSP had not followed procurement requirements for the contract entered into for project evaluation and coordination services. Cause/Effect: Management oversight. Questioned Cost: $150,000 – the amount paid during the fiscal year pursuant to contract in question. Recommendation: We recommend that the CMHSP review/update policies and procedures to ensure that all federal requirements for procurements are followed for future contracts entered into with federal funds. Management’s Resp: Management is in agreement with this recommendation. Also, the grantor was notified of this finding and has notified the CMHSP that there is no elevated level of risk moving forward through the remainder of the grant cycle.
