Finding Number: 2025-015 ALN Number(s) and Program Title(s): 21.029 – Coronavirus Capital Project Funds Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: ASBO acknowledges the auditor’s observation regarding cumulative obligation amounts reported for two projects in the Q2 2025 Project and Expenditure Report submitted to the U.S. Department of the Treasury. The variances identified were the result of an administrative reporting error within a quarterly submission spreadsheet and did not reflect improper expenditures, questioned costs, or misuse of funds. The Agency identified the discrepancy during its internal review process and submitted corrected information to Treasury. By the time of audit review, the corrected reporting had already been provided. This issue was isolated to a specific reporting period and did not impact the underlying financial integrity of the projects.

Criteria: The Organization’s agreements carry with them certain periodic reporting requirements that are due either fifteen days following the close of each month, or thirty days following the close of each quarter. Condition: We noted two instances in which certain required reports were submitted late.

Cause: Management oversight. Effect: Untimely filing of reports could result in delays in future funding or funds received being returned to the grantor. Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: We encourage the Organization to continue its efforts to ensure that all contract reports are submitted timely in the future. Views of responsible officials and planned corrective action: Management is creating checklists to ensure all performance and financial reports are properly completed, reviewed, and timely filed.

Finding 2025-004 - Enrollment Reporting: Untimely Status Update Condition: One student who graduated in December 2024 was not reported within the required 60-day timeframe. Corrective Action Plan: The College will strengthen enrollment reporting controls within Colleague by: • Performing a monthly reconciliation between Registrar records and enrollment reporting files submitted to NSLDS. • Utilizing Colleague reporting tools to identify recent graduates and status changes requiring updates. • Establishing a compliance calendar with system reminders for required reporting deadlines. • Training staff on reporting requirements aligned with the National Student Loan Data System.

Identifying Number: 2025-001 Finding: For sixteen out of forty students tested who had enrollment changes at the University, the student’s status effective dates at the campus level and program level were not reported to the NSLDS timely. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: We agree with the finding. The delays in reporting were identified beginning in December 2024 with the hire of a new registrar and since that time we have caught up with reporting requirements are now timely. We have also increased our cross-training efforts in the department, training multiple individuals on NSC reporting procedures, in order to ensure that if turnover were to occur again in the future there are other individuals who can perform the required functions.

Management has and will continue to work diligently with our auditor to make every reasonable effort to resolve this issue. Due to the cost-benefits of eliminating this condition, segregation of duties may continue to be a reportable condition.

Condition: The Organization failed to submit the quarterly activity report as of September 30, 2024 by October 30, 2024. The report was filed November 7, 2024. Planned Corrective Action: In addition to Calendar Task Reminders (created after receiving Grant Award) assigned to various teams and managers, ECDI will add steps in the Grant Reporting Submission process to ensure reporting deliverables are met on time. Through its CRM system, ECDI will require Report documents to be both uploaded and reviewed prior to report deadlines. ECDI will also require uploading the confirmation that the document was provided to funder/partner. After these are reviewed by Development and Fiscal leaders, then the Task will be considered complete.

Condition: During eligibility testing of loan disbursements under the RMAP program, one of eight disbursements tested was made to a borrower located outside of the eligible area. The loan was disbursed in fiscal year 2025 for $10,000. Planned Corrective Action: The ECDI processing and loan allocation teams will not exclusively leverage it’s CRM system for determining USDA eligibility based on borrower/business address. The team will use the USDA website in determining eligibility prior to allocating USDA funds to a project. Related to the specific ineligible $10,000 USDA loan, the team has communicated to its USDA partner to make them aware of this specific issue and ECDI is in the process of removing USDA funds and replacing with another source.

Condition: During our testing of allocated salaries and wages, we identified errors in how employee time was allocated to the program, and salaries and wages allocated to the program in excess of the Executive Level II Salary maximum.

Condition: During our testing of allocated salaries and wages, we identified errors in how employee time was allocated to the program, and salaries and wages allocated to the program in excess of the Executive Level II Salary maximum. One employee in each program, 59.046 and 93.570, had an inappropriate wage rate applied to allocated time to the program. Additionally, for the 59.046 program only, one employee had compensation levels allocated to the program in excess of the Executive Level II Salary maximum amount in effect for the respective period. Planned Corrective Action: ECDI will put additional steps in place related to the Payroll Review process to ensure reconciliation of payroll charges to actual time records and rates. The organization will modify its calculations to ensure that pay rates are reflective of the timeframe in question (not for periods before or after). ECDI will update its calculations to include thresholds for Executive pay so they are not entered more than approved rates. The company is also exploring technology enhancements so that information from ECDI’s Payroll system flows directly into ECDI’s Accounting system to limit the chance of errors during extraction from Payroll system and uploading into Accounting system.

The Educational Service Center believes in service to kids; thus, we sacrificed timing of certain items while ensuring documentation ultimately supported proper expenditures and required services were maintained throughout the year. We were in constant communication with ODJFS as to the status of each expenditure. Beginning with fiscal 2027, if we decide to continue such programs, we will no longer delay our reporting of information to ODJFS nor accept information from third parties after required due dates.

While all the costs reported to grantors were fully allowable per our contract, we continued to have some challenges in reflecting these costs in QuickBooks at the detailed level. We have implemented several accounting improvements that have addressed most of the differences between our cost reports by contract and QuickBooks. We continue, however, to face challenges in allocating indirect costs (allowed by a contract) down to the level of individual contract accounts in QuickBooks. The second continuing challenge is allocation of certain fringe benefits such as employee savings match and contributions to Health Savings Accounts down to the contract level for staff who work on multiple contracts. In the past month we have added new staff with greater experience in accounting and are implementing new ongoing reviews that will assure that our QuickBooks information remains exactly in sync with our fiscal reports.
