Notes to SEFA

The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal and state awards (the Schedule) include the federal and state grant activity of Crossnore Communities for Children (the Organization) and is presented on the accrual basis of accounting. The information in this Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards. Therefore, some amounts presented in this Schedule may differ from certain financial reports submitted to federal, state, or city agencies due to those reports being submitted on either a cash or modified accrual basis of accounting. Because the accompanying Schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the Organization, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net assets, or cash flows of the Organization.

Finding Details

Federal Agency: Department of Health and Human Services Federal Program Name: Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Projects of Regional and National Significance Assistance Listing Number: 93.243 Federal Award Identification Number and Year: 1H79SM087513-01 - 2024 Award Period: September 30, 2023 through September 29, 2027 Type of Finding: • Other Matters Criteria or specific requirement: According to 2 CFR 200.318, non-federal entities must have and use documented procurement procedures that reflect applicable state and local laws and regulations, and conform to federal law and the standards identified in 2 CFR 200.318 through 2 CFR 200.327. Condition: During our review of the organization's procurement processes, it was noted that the organization does not have a procurement policy that complies with federal requirements. Specifically, the policy does not address key elements such as competition, cost or price analysis, and documentation requirements as outlined in federal regulations. Questioned costs: None Context: Policies exist, but do not meet requirements. There are no requirements to retain documentation related to comparison or analysis prior to purchase or procurement. Cause: The absence of a compliant procurement policy appears to be due to a lack of awareness of the specific federal requirements and the absence of a formal process to review and update organizational policies to ensure compliance. Repeat Finding: Yes Effect: Without a procurement policy that complies with federal requirements, the organization is at risk of non-compliance with grant conditions, which could lead to questioned costs, potential disallowance of expenditures, and jeopardize future funding opportunities. Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization develop and implement a procurement policy that complies with federal requirements, including provisions for competition, cost or price analysis, and proper documentation. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.
