Audit 372071

Criteria: Per 2 CFR §200.512(a), the auditee must submit the data collection form and reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse ("FAC") within the earlier of thirty calendar days after receipt of the auditors' report, or nine months after the end of the audit period. Condition: The auditee submitted the required reporting package to the FAC past the regulatory deadline. Cause: The delay was due to a combination of staff/management turnover in the finance department and late start of the audit. Effect: Late submission may result in noncompliance with federal regulations, potentially affecting the auditee’s eligibility for future federal funding and triggering additional oversight or sanctions. Recommendation: Management should implement a compliance calendar and assign responsibility to a specific staff member to track and ensure timely submission of audit reports. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management concurs with the finding and has already implemented a compliance tracking system. A new policy was adopted during FY 2025 to ensure timely submissions moving forward. Contact Person: Brett Metzger, Outside Consultant Completion date: November 11, 2025
