VIEWS OF RESPONSIBLE OFFICIALS The PRDE acknowledges and accepts the finding. Management recognizes the importance of ensuring that all obligations and expenditures are properly incurred within the authorized period of performance established for each grant in compliance with federal regulations under 2 CFR §200.77 and §200.309. The PRDE has initiated a comprehensive review of the purchase orders (POs) identified in the finding that were obligated after the grant award end date of September 30, 2023. Each program—Adult Education (84.002), Special Education (IDEA, 84.027), and Career and Technical Education (Perkins V, 84.048A)—will evaluate these transactions to determine whether they correspond to allowable and valid obligations incurred during the active grant period. Where applicable and supported by documentation, PRDE will adjust or reclassify the expenses to the appropriate and current grant period. In instances where reassignment to an active grant is not possible, PRDE will identify available state funds to absorb these costs and will process the corresponding reimbursements or journal entries to ensure full compliance with federal requirements. Furthermore, PRDE’s Budget Office, in coordination with the Federal Affairs Office and Finance Office, is in the process of strengthening internal control procedures to prevent the creation of POs after the period of performance. This includes: (i)Automating system controls within the SIFDE accounting system to restrict the creation of POs for grants whose period of performance has expired; (ii)Implement an internal monitoring checklist at the program and budget level to validate the effective date of POs prior to approval; (iii)Establishing a communication between the Budget Office and program offices to ensure that any pending obligations are reviewed and processed before the closeout of the grant period. These corrective actions aim to ensure compliance with federal regulations, strengthen accountability, and enhance the overall effectiveness of the internal control environment related to the management of federal funds.

VIEWS OF RESPONSIBLE OFFICIALS Management agrees with the audit finding and has implemented a comprehensive corrective action plan to address payroll processing errors, strengthen internal controls, and ensure accurate and timely payments. As part of PRDE’s Fiscal Plan of 2020–2021, the Department launched the official integration project between the Time, Attendance, and Leave (TAL) system and the Payroll (RHUM) system. This integration ensures that payroll disbursements are made only after the employee’s attendance has been validated through the TAL system. Employees are required to record their attendance using biometric verification or have an authorized leave properly documented and approved by their supervisor before receiving payment. If attendance is not validated, the system automatically issues a notification and applies the necessary adjustment. This project, initiated in November 2020 with the collaboration of the Puerto Rico Fiscal Oversight and Management Board (FOMB), MS Consulting, the Department of the Treasury (Hacienda), the Financial Advisory Authority (AAFAF), and the Puerto Rico Innovation and Technology Service (PRITS), was fully integrated by February 2021. As a result, PRDE has significantly reduced overpayments, duplicate payments, and other payroll inconsistencies. To reinforce this effort, PRDE issued a new Time and Attendance Policy on December 7, 2021, later updated on April 11, 2022, which clearly defines employee responsibilities, authorized leaves, disciplinary procedures, and supervisor accountability. Under this policy, employees and supervisors are required to follow strict timekeeping procedures, and noncompliance triggers automatic system notifications and salary adjustments. The PRDE’s Time and Attendance staff continues to monitor and maintain compliance through: i. Ongoing training sessions for PRDE personnel; ii. System dashboards tracking attendance behaviors; iii. Issuance of notifications and payroll adjustments as required; and iv. Regular follow-up and evaluation activities. Additionally, PRDE’s Finance Office implemented a reconciliation process that integrates data from TAL, RHUM, and SIFDE, ensuring that payroll expenditures align with validated attendance records. The system now performs cross-checks before submission to the Treasury Department, preventing disbursements for unverified time. These combined measures—technological integration, policy enforcement, staff training, and reconciliation controls—have strengthened payroll accuracy, reduced the risk of overpayments, and improved financial accountability across the Department.

VIEWS OF RESPONSIBLE OFFICIALS The PRDE does not agree with the recommendation to revise the Restart Fiscal Process Guide to require private schools to submit a receiving report or equivalent documentation to substantiate equipment purchases prior to reimbursement. These transactions correspond to reimbursements, not direct purchases made by PRDE; therefore, verification is performed through proof of payment submitted by the schools. When auditors requested confirmation of receipt, PRDE obtained photographs of the equipment from the schools to provide additional verification that the items were in the school. In addition, the PRDE wants to clarify that where quotations were used instead of invoices, the private schools provided valid proof of payment that matched the quotations submitted. This evidence demonstrated that the purchases were completed and consistent with the approved documentation, meeting the requirements for allowable and verifiable costs under Federal regulations. The PRDE does not agree with the recommendation to change the accounting classification or to implement additional review procedures related to the use of account E6170, “Donations and Contributions to Private Entities.” The use of account E6170 is appropriate given the nature of the transaction, which reflects a reimbursement to a private school rather than a direct purchase by PRDE that would otherwise be recorded under account E5500. The PRDE acknowledges the deficiencies noted during the audit regarding the omission of reimbursed equipment purchases from the PRDE Property and Equipment Register. To address this, the PRDE has prepared a list of reimbursed equipment purchased by private schools under the Restart Program. This list will be provided to the personnel responsible for maintaining the register to ensure the inclusion of these items in the Property and Equipment Register, in compliance with the capitalization and accountability requirements established in the Restart Fiscal Process Guide. The corrective action is scheduled for implementation on or before the end of the current fiscal year. Auditor Comment on Management Response for Finding No. 2024-003 In relation to situation #2 comments, the PRDE didn’t have evidence of the receiving report, which is required for all other purchases of equipment for which the PRDE is the owner. Internal controls over property and equipment should be the same for all equipment for which the PRDE is the owner. In relation to situation #3, all equipment purchased and registered in this account was not included in the inventory of the PRDE, because the general ledger account used is not recognized for purchase of property and equipment, instead is a general ledger account for donations. Further, in accordance with the “Guia de Procesos Fiscales – Fondos Programa Restart”, it is established that all reimbursement of equipment should be recorded in accounts E5000 or E4414. This is because the system recognizes that an addition of equipment was made and must be capitalized. IMPLEMENTATION DATE In process. RESPONSIBLE PERSON María de los A.

October 30, 2025 Person responsible: Fernando Soto, President / CEO Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2024 Section III – Federal Awards Findings and Questioned Costs Item 2024 – 001 Federal Assistance Listing Number: 93.914 HIV Emergency Relief Project Grants – Public Health Solutions Condition The Organization’s Data Collection Form submission to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse was not filed on time within nine months of the end of its fiscal year.

To support timely future submissions, the organization will implement the recommended control procedures and adopt an internal timeline beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. In addition, the audit process will be initiated earlier to ensure completion and submission by the established deadline of September 30, 2026.
Management will implement an internal procedure to ensure proper filing within 30 days of quarter end to be in reporting compliance.
