Finding Details

Reference Number: 2022-001 United States Department of Agriculture Federal ID# & Program Name: 10.553 & 10.555 Child Nutrition Cluster Description: Suspension and Debarment Verification Criteria: Internal controls require that management confirm vendors suspension and debarment status prior to vendors being included on grant claims. Condition: For five vendors that were awarded more than $25,000, documentation supporting that confirmation of vendor status occurred, prior to grant claim submission, was not maintained. Cause: Inadequate controls to ensure verification of vendors that are not suspended or debarred are properly maintained. Effect: Determining that adequate controls are place for testing the suspension and debarment status of vendors was unverifiable for all five vendors. Auditors? Recommendation: The Organization should maintain evidence that vendors were verified prior to the submission of grant claims. Corrective Action Plan: See attachment for Organization?s corrective action plan.
