Management's Response - The City recognizes that the requirement of providing the identifying assistance listing number was not provided on certain ARPA contracts awarded through the Department of Recreation and Human Services. It is the City's practice to include this information in all contracts where federal funds are awarded. In November of 2024 when it was identified that there were a number of subrecipients that had not been notified of this required information, the Department of Recreation and Humans Services emailed all subrecipients who had not previously been provided this information. In order to prevent this requirement from being overlooked in the future, the Law Department has also been informed of this requirement. The Law Department is in the approval process for all contracts and will not provide their approval until this requirement is met.

The City did not follow federal requirements for FFATA reporting through the FSRS and as a result has not completed the appropriate sub-award reporting that is required for direct recipients. Auditor Recommendation: We recommend that the City review its procedures for FFATA reporting through FSRS and ensure that all key data elements are reported timely moving forward. Corrective Action: The City acknowledges reporting has lapsed in this system. New procedures have been put in place to ensure reporting occurs in a timely manner and there is oversight of the reporting throughout the year. These procedures include additional questions on internal documents regarding potential subrecipients, as well as monitoring Commission agendas, and regular reporting reminders.

Reference Number: 2024-002 Finding: Other Instance of Noncompliance and Deficiency Status: In-progress Corrective Action: The University did not complete a Return to Title IV refund calculation within 45 days after a student had withdrawn from UST. The Assistant Director of Financial Aid runs a query once a month to find students who have received Title IV or state aid and have withdrawn. The student in question did not appear on the query when we believe they should have, but was on the subsequent report. We have changed our procedures to run the query and complete Return to Title IV calculations weekly, rather than monthly. We believe this will help us find any discrepancies more quickly. We also reviewed the query and made some edits to attempt to increase accuracy.

Reference Number: 2024-001 Finding: Other Instance of Noncompliance and Significant Deficiency Status: In-progress Corrective Action: Following our analysis, we have concluded that adjusting our data transmission schedule to NSC will help prevent future last minute data anomalies, ensuring that a final transmission for the term always occurs after the end date of each term. Additionally, we have identified a potential issue where NSC may fail to send graduate records to NSLDS for students who immediately re-enroll in the subsequent semester. Due to timing between the submission from NSC to NSLDS, the newer enrollment appears to be overriding the previously sent graduation record, preventing the graduation record from being sent to NSLDS. To address this, we will create a dedicated report to identify students in this situation and manually update NSLDS with the missed graduation data. Finally, there were isolated cases where a historical date adjustment was made to generate an auxiliary outcome (e.g., a grade change of Withdrawal instead of Withdrawal Failing), which made it appear as though a record change wasn't submitted in a timely manner. For these, we will discontinue this practice and employ an alternative method to derive the desired outcome (e.g., additional grade change transactions input after the withdrawal with no date adjustment).

Cash Management Management agrees with the finding and the auditor's recommendation. There was confusion at the time of this agreement as the nature of the work was in line with providing institutional services rather than a federal grant agreement. This led to a misunderstanding of cash management requirements due to the nature of the award. Mass General Brigham (MGB) has removed the $215K of questioned costs from the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA). The funding will be returned to Advanced Regenerative Manufacturing Institute, Inc. in January 2025. Additionally, management will review the limited instances where departments have been previously approved to request federal cash. This review is to confirm that an exception to the standard practice of managing this through the central Research Finance team is appropriate. Based on results of this review, to be completed by March 2025, management will determine criteria and prior approval requirements for departments to request federal cash if MGB concludes this practice will continue on a limited exception basis. The review will be conducted with oversight by the MGB Vice President of Research Management and Research Finance and the MGB Research Controller.
