2021-004 COVID-19 HEERF Student Aid Portion and COVID-19 HEERF Institutional Portion Recommendation: We recommend the Organization establish a system to track due dates of reports to ensure timely submission and retain documents to support the submission and accuracy of the reports. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: I do not disagree with this finding, however it is important to clarify that this is not a repeat finding from 2021, but rather, this is the exact same incident of the 2021 finding. The 2021 audit was not conducted until February 2022 which happens to also fall into our FY2022. As a result, this finding was corrected immediately following the FY21 discovery and the corrective action was put into place at that time and remains in place and effective. That corrective action was and is as follows: Summit did and continues to have the due dates for the various reporting deadlines, and we did meet those deadlines, however the issue remains that once our reports were updated to the website as required, there exists no audit log of the dates of the changes. As a solution to this issue, we have created a due date log that will be updated with the change date and the log will be signed by the originator of the report as well as the overseer of the website. This signed log will be preserved for review. Names of the contact persons responsible for corrective action: Reports will continue to be filed by the CFO (Marc Carrier) and the Digital Marketing Specialist (Rachel Prost) will be responsible for the website update. This was implemented March 31,2022 and remains in place.
