2025-003– Significant Deficiency in Internal Controls over Equipment and Real Property Management; Noncompliance with Equipment and Real Property Management Condition: A physical inventory of the property must be taken and the results reconciled with the property records at least once every two years (2 CFR 200.313(d)(2)). Criteria: Property records must be maintained that include a description of the property, a serial number or other identification number, the source of funding for the property (including the FAIN), who holds title, the acquisition date, and cost of the property, percentage of Federal participation in the project costs for the Federal award under which the property was acquired, the location, use and condition of the property, and any ultimate disposition data including the date of disposal and sale price of the property (2 CFR 200.313(d)(1)). Cause: Procedures within the Organization were inadequate to ensure that required elements are regularly updated on its vehicle listing, and that the physical inventory count and reconciliation is documented. Effect: Federal interest in property are lost or inadequately tracked. Recommendation: We recommend the Organization track all Federally-required elements along with its own internal data points (such as bus number and depreciation system number) in one consolidated listing. Further, we recommend that a policy be instituted whereby a physical inventory and related reconciliation is performed annually on June 30, with the results being documented, reviewed, and approved by appropriate personnel.. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The Organization will update its property records to include all required information. Additionally, the Organization plans to document its performance of a physical inventory count and related reconciliation on an annual basis. Repeat Finding: Yes, 2024-003
