Submission of the Audit Reporting Package and Data Collection Form Recommendation: We recommend the organization strengthen its internal controls over the reconciliation process, including implementing a formal review procedure and ensuring reconciliations are supported by complete and accurate documentation prior to audit fieldwork. Timely and accurate reconciliations are critical to maintaining reliable financial reporting and audit readiness. Action Taken: CMJTS acknowledges the delay and has been making improvements to ensure reconciliations are done timely. Accounting staff have been given additional training on bank reconciliations, and they are now reconciling bank transactions daily. This real time reconciling helps ensure that all transactions are processed accurately. Bank reconciliations are then signed off by Finance Manager and the Board Treasurer monthly. Accounting staff have been given additional training on statement of financial position reconciliations and will be reconciling them monthly. The statement of financial position, with supporting documentation, will then be signed off by the Finance Manager monthly.

Ineffective Grant Management Recommendation: Establish a standardized process for reviewing grant budgets against actual expenditures, with clearly defined roles and timelines. Deliver targeted training to relevant staff on grant reporting protocols and variance analysis. Implement a cross-functional review procedure prior to report submission to ensure accuracy and completeness. Action Taken: Since migrating to the new accounting software in February of 2025, CMJTS program managers have better access to reporting for their budgets. Budgets are also loaded into the system by month, and program managers are then able to track program to date expenses versus the what had been planned. Additionally, CMJTS accounting staff has moved to ‘real-time accounting’, meaning that all transactions are being recorded right away in order to flow through to program manager reports. Additionally, the CMJTS Finance Manager meets with program managers on a monthly basis to review budgets and provide additional training. These additional steps empower the program managers to take ownership of their budgets and be able to make more informed decisions on running their programs.

Documentation of Allocations for Salaries and Wage Costs Recommendation: The Organization should establish and implement a comprehensive documentation retention policy that includes clear procedures for maintaining records supporting the allocation of employee time. This policy should ensure that all relevant documentation—such as timesheets and work allocation records—is retained for the required period and readily accessible for audit purposes. Additionally, staff involved in timekeeping and financial reporting should receive training on documentation requirements under the Uniform Guidance. Action Taken: CMJTS has since worked with DEED to update our cost allocation policy, and DEED approved our new policy. In this policy, the CMJTS fiscal team will work with CMJTS program managers to update allocations for the upcoming month. Changes to allocations will be documents and saved for record retention.
