FINDING - FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAMS AUDITS U.S. Department of Health and Human Services 2023-001 Head Start – Assistance Listing #93.600 Recommendation: The Organization should establish more defined written policies and procedures regarding credit card rebates that are in line with Uniform Guidance requirements, as well as establish organizational controls to ensure that such policies and procedures are being followed. Explanation of disagreement with audit findings: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The issue was recognized by management shortly after the close of the fiscal year. The entire balance of accumulated points was converted to gift cards. A historical analysis of the coding for all purchases charged to the credit card during the year under audit is being performed. A proportional amount of the total value of the gift cards will be credited to each federal award as a reduction of costs. This process will continue to be performed on a regular basis for the duration of the use of the credit card in question. Action Plan: OCDC will move to utilizing credit cards that do not have a rewards program. Inquiries have been made with OCDC’s banking institution regarding the available options. The policies and procedures surrounding the use of credit cards will be documented in writing, and anyone who is entrusted to use an agency credit card will be required to sign a document acknowledging their understanding of those policies and procedures.

Identifying Number: 2023-001 Audit Recommendation: Procedures should be consistently applied requiring the reconciliation of employee timecards to actual costs allocated and charged to federal and other programs. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: To ensure compliance with grant requirements and address the issue with employee timecards and vouchers submitted, the following steps will be implemented: 1. Time Tracking: Employees will continue to be required to record their time every two weeks (through HourTimeSheet), ensuring that the hours worked align with the percentage of time allocated to the grant for those two weeks. 2. Clear Communication: The Project Director will clarify the importance of matching monthly hours with the percentage allocated to all staff participating in the grant. This will help prevent misunderstandings regarding time reporting. 3. Reviews: The Project Director will continue to conduct monthly reviews of timecards to verify that reported hours correspond with the grant’s allocation requirements before submitting vouchers. By implementing these measures, we aim to ensure that timecards accurately reflect the allocation of employee-related costs on a monthly basis, promoting compliance with grant requirements moving forward.

REFERENCE # 2023-003 Federal Transit Cluster - Federal Transit Formula Grant (ALN # 20.507)- Deficiency-Non-Compliance Agency: U.S. Department of Transportation Criteria: Allowable Costs––Direct - As stated in Uniform Grant Guidance - §200 Requirements for Allowable Costs: • Costs did not consist of improper payments, including (1) payments that should not have been made or that were made in incorrect amounts (including overpayments and underpayments) under statutory, contractual, administrative, or other legally applicable requirements; (2) payments that do not account for credit for applicable discounts; (3) duplicate payments; (4) payments that were made to an ineligible party or for an ineligible good or service; and (5) payments for goods or services not received (except for such payments where authorized by law). Condition/Context: The MTA has Allowable Costs procedures in place. MTA has corporate policies and procedures regarding Allowable Costs. We tested the Federal Transit Cluster- Federal Transit Formula Grant’s Allowable Costs compliance. Based on our review of sixty samples related to personnel services for this cluster , we noted that one sample related to an MTA Bus Company personnel’s hourly rate which was charged at higher rate. The correct hourly rate was $46.82 and MTA Bus Company used a rate of $60.99. Recommendation: We recommend that MTA ensure that all personnel are reviewed and should be charged at the correct hourly rates as required by §200 CFR Subpart E – Allowable Costs. Corrective Action Plan: MTA BUS worked with the project team to implement the correct rate and reparations applied. MTA returned the credit to FTA on August 12, 2024. MTA will review the files thoroughly to prevent calculation errors in the future.

To ensure that only proper labor costs are included in grant funding requests, the invoice reported to the grant issuing agency is reviewed by the Project Manager and evidenced by his signature. This review includes reviewing the individual labor charges prior to signing the invoice. All individuals who support the grant purpose and are funded by a grant will be separately identified and the ratio of allowable time to total time will be determined for each pay period. Allowable cost for each individual will be aggregated to the total labor cost for the period and be included in the invoice requesting fund draws. These procedures will be in effect as of the date of this writing.
