Finding Number: 2023-002 Condition: The Society did not have documentation to support that two covered transactions were checked for potential suspension or debarment before entering into the transaction. There was one covered transaction where the Society did not have documentation to support the procurement process followed or that more than one vendor was reviewed for pricing before selecting the vendor chosen. Planned Corrective Action: Staff turnover in early 2023 resulted in limited capacity for dedicated staff to check for potential suspension or debarment before adding vendors to the system. We have dedicated staff who will be managing this process going forward. The Society has written procurement policies and procedures. Key leadership stakeholders have been apprised of our policies and procedures. The Society will be implementing a training series for government funded procurement stakeholders within the Society to ensure compliance.

Name of auditee: Adirondack Community Action Programs, Inc. TIN: 14-1490418 Name of audit firm: EFPR Group, CPAs, PLLC Period covered by audit: June 1, 2022 - May 31, 2023 CAP prepared by: Alan Jones ajones@acapinc.org Finding 2023-001 Adirondack Community Action Programs Inc. (ACAP) is committed to addressing the finding highlighted in the Independent Auditor's Report on Compliance regarding late filing of the Data Collection Form. We recognize the importance of timely reporting for organizational compliance. We were fortunate to receive significant additional unexpected financial resources in the year in question to assist with COVID recovery and support for our work in Child Care. These additional resources were welcomed, but created a temporary significant increase in the workload for our business office. We pride ourselves on our internal controls and comprehensive financial procedures and expect this delay to be isolated to the year in question. As in the past, ACAP will: • Ensure adequate staffing levels given the increases we have been experiencing in annual revenue. • Continue to review our internal processes related to financial reporting and filing deadlines. Identify any bottlenecks or inefficiencies contributing to the delays. • Continue to foster effective communication channels among team members responsible for financial reporting. Continue to ensure everyone understands their roles and responsibilities in meeting filing deadlines. • As always encourage training and development opportunities for staff. • Consider engaging external consultants or advisors to provide guidance around best practices. • Continue to foster a culture of continuous improvement within the organization. Encourage feedback from staff members on ways to streamline processes and identify opportunities for improvement. By implementing these corrective actions, ACAP is confident that we can address this late filing finding and strengthen our financial reporting practices moving forward. We are committed to ensuring timely and accurate reporting to uphold the trust and confidence of our stakeholders.

CORRECTIVE ACTION - FINDING 2023-004 - SEGREGATION OF DUTIES Anticipated Date of Completion: June 1, 2024 Name of Contact Person: Robin Vail, Business Manager Management Response: Management acknowledges the repeated finding concerning the segregation of duties within the accounting and bookkeeping functions at the beginning of the audit period. We recognize the importance of segregating these duties to safeguard assets and ensure the accuracy of financial information. While we faced limitations in resources during that period, we have since hired additional staff to mitigate this risk. Moving forward, we remain committed to maintaining an appropriate segregation of duties to strengthen internal controls and mitigate potential risks.

Management's Views and Corrective Action Plan Finding 2023-002 - Non-Compliance with Financial Need Requirements for Subsidized Direct Loans in Non-Standard Semesters Grantor: U.S. Department of Education Program: Student Financial Assistance Cluster Assistance Listing#: 84.268 Award Titles: Federal Direct Student Loan Program Program Award Years: 7/2022 - 6/2024 Management agrees with the finding and proposes the following corrective action plan: Corrective Action Plan: When a student attends a standard semester (Fall and Winter), PeopleSoft uses the Prorated Estimated Family Contribution (EFC) Methodology to determine the subsidized loan eligibility based on their EFC. When a student attends a non-standard term (Spring), PeopleSoft uses the Automatic Zero EFC Methodology and offers subsidized loans to all students rather than the subsidized loan eligibility based on their EFC. Tammie Fonoimoana, Financial Aid & Scholarships Senior Manager, will work to update the PeopleSoft system to use the Prorated EFC Methodology for calculating subsidized loan eligibility for both standard and non-standard terms. In addition, Tammie Fonoimoana, Financial Aid & Scholarships Senior Manager, who is responsible for packaging and awarding of Financial Aid at Brigham Young University- Hawaii will continue to provide training to the staff who administer Title IV aid to ensure they are aware of the changes in packaging and awarding subsidized loans for the non-standard term (Spring). Also, Tammie Fonoimoana will oversee the implementation of controls wherein the University will implement preventative mechanisms to verify financial aid packages are calculated correctly. Timing: Tammie Fonoimoana, Financial Aid & Scholarships Senior Manager, will be responsible for overseeing that the items as noted in the corrective action plan section above will be implemented by July 1, 2024. Signed and Acknowledged, Tammie Fonoimoana, Senior Manager BYU-Hawaii Financial Aid & Scholarships Tammie.fonoimoana@byuh.edu 808-675-4737

Finding ref number: 2023-001 Finding caption: The District did not have adequate internal controls for ensuring compliance with allowable activities and costs and restricted purpose requirements. Name, address, and telephone of District contact person: Cathie Seevers 134 Marion Ave N Bremerton, WA 98312 360-473-1034 Corrective action the auditee plans to take in response to the finding: This audit finding is for ECF Funds that were awarded through the FCC. While we thought we complied when purchasing chrome books for hybrid learning, there were some other requirements that we were not able to document. Because our asset management system does not retain a list of previous ‘owners’ of each chrome book (the system replaces that student with the new student’s name and does not keep the history) we were unable to tell you exactly what student had several of our chrome books at that snapshot in time. We are now aware of the importance of this feature and will record these differently to maintain a history of users. BSD does not intend to use any more ECF funds. Anticipated date to complete the corrective action: May 1, 2024

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: Management agrees with the above finding and has implemented a plan to reduce expenses and increase cash flows going forward. Specifically, we have outlined the following steps that we are taking as an organization to get back on track: o Outsourcing of finance function to an outside CPA firm with focus on cleaning up resident billings and enhanced collection efforts of the Home’s outstanding patient receivables. o Outsourcing of dining services at both locations, which is expected to save the Home approximately $100,000 annually. o Workforce reduction in management and ancillary level staff. Establishment of a committee to focus primarily on recruitment of in-house staff, in order to fill open positions and thereby seek to minimize reliance on higher cost contracted/agency staff. o Review of all contracts and monthly expenses to identify further opportunities to reduce expenses. o With the completion of the stormwater infrastructure project in early 2024, the Home is also planning a 36-unit independent living expansion, which is expected to increase cash flows in the future.

Federal ESSER Funding was released in waves following the COVID-19 pandemic. The compliance for reporting and audits of these pandemic-related funds was new for staff across the state of California. Given this, staff did not send a capital outlay pre-approval request for technology equipment. Furthermore, more close oversight was needed regarding a multi-year subscription for a technology firewall that exceeded the grant timelines. Moving forward, the CBO and Assistant Directors of Finance and Accounting will work to ensure there are more layers of approval for Capital Outlay expenditures, especially as they relate to restricted categorical resources.

First, we created a general ledger account for each bank account, which involved the rewrite of multiple processes, including changes in our software. We then needed to address reconciliation of past banking and general ledger transactions that were recorded using the old processes. To achieve this step, we contracted for accounting services with a firm independent of our auditors. This firm is reconciling every cash transaction in our general ledger going back to July l, 2022, to the present day. The third step of our plan involves contracting with this same firm to work with the County and its financial software company to set up our cash management software module so that we may eliminate the manual process by leveraging technology to reconcile our multiple bank accounts on a monthly basis.
