Finding 2023-005 Accuracy of Federal Reports POF's initial and current exposure a few months later to Single Audit compliance requirements have sharpened its focus on the need to purposefully identify and maintain corroborating evidence regarding its timely submission and acceptance by each of the respective funding sources. While POF believes that all these reporting requirements were timely met and accepted by all funding sources, It did not consistently maintain either the report itself, or the related documentation such as copies of the emails sent or the associated read-receipts as evidence of these reports. Effective July 1, POF routinely and consistently accumulated and organized these documents as well as ancillary evidence of their transmission to, receipt by, and acknowledgement of acceptance by the federal agency. POF will be more diligent in its transmissions to funders. POF noted that the 2022 Closeout Report was inexplicably re-submitted instead of the correct 2023 Closeout Report. This is unacceptable, and POF will add a second set of reviews by a second person to improve quality control in this area. As necessary, POF will seek professional education and advice in implementing policies, practices, and procedures in addition to those already described herein.

Finding 2023-004 Adequate Allowable Cost Documentation As indicated in the 2022 POFCAP response to Finding 2022-003, and as reiterated herein, POF began to implement additional internal control procedures and practices effective July 1, 2024, to ensure that underlying cost documentation is adequate, reasonable, and complete in accordance with 2 CFR Part 200 Subpart E and other regulatory requirements. More specifically, vendor invoices as of that date and related supporting documents such as weekly meeting reports and sign-in sheets are being scanned and retained electronically. As in 2022, the contact information from the 2023 weekly reports was transmitted to either Wright State University or The Ohio State University for data mining purposes. On July 22, 20224, the POF Board of Directors unanimously adopted the POF Record Retention Policy, as recommended by the auditors. The Board also unanimously adopted a Code of Conduct along with Conflict of Interest, and Whistleblower policies as further evidence of their commitment to instituting policies and procedures designed to strengthen internal controls and comply with federal regulations. Questioned Cost Totaling $19,179 Effective July 1, 2024, POF's new internal control policies, and procedures will eliminate or drastically reduce future discrepancies of this nature.
