Corrective Action Plan: To address the noted condition, management has implemented corrective measures effective with the FY25 reporting cycle: 1. New ERP System Implementation – The transition to the new ERP system will automate the tracking of federal and state grant expenditures against the general ledger and streamline the preparation of the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) and State Financial Assistance. 2. Strengthened Internal Controls and Approvals – Beginning in FY25, updated policies and procedures require monthly reconciliations of the SEFA schedule to the general ledger. These reconciliations are reviewed and approved by senior finance staff to ensure timely identification and correction of discrepancies. 3. Independent Oversight and Expertise – The organization has engaged an independent consulting firm with deep nonprofit expertise to assist in reviewing internal controls and reconciliation processes, ensuring alignment with best practices, and providing periodic oversight during the ERP transition. 4. Ongoing Staff Training – Finance staff are receiving training in the new ERP system and updated internal control procedures to ensure consistency and accuracy across reporting periods. Management believes these measures, beginning with FY25 reporting, will ensure timely, accurate reconciliations of the SEFA schedule to the financial statements, prevent future audit delays, and strengthen overall grant compliance. Questioned Costs None reported.
