FINDING 2023-004 Subject: Child Nutrition Cluster – Procurement and Suspension and Debarment Summary of Finding: The School Corporation had not designed or implemented internal controls, policies, or procedures to ensure that proper procurement procedures for small purchases were followed. Due to the lack of oversight or implemented controls small purchases paid to eight vendors totaling $180,015 were made without obtaining price or rate quotes. The School Corporation had not designed or implemented internal controls, policies, or procedures to ensure that vendors were not suspended or debarred prior to entering into a covered transaction. One covered transaction that equaled or exceeded $25,000 was identified and selected for testing. Transactions to the vendor totaled $81,295; the School Corporation did not verify the vendor’s suspension and debarment status prior to payment. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Juli Windsor Contact Phone Number:765-689-9131 Views of Responsible Official: We concur with the finding Description of Corrective Action Plan: The corporation will have adequate internal control in place and the corporation will develop a procedure to ensure rate or priced quotes are obtained for small purchases and ensure contractors are not suspended, debarred, or otherwise excluded prior to entering into any contracts or subawards.

FINDING 2023-003 Finding Subject: Child Nutrition Cluster - Eligibility Summary of Finding: The School Corporation had not properly designed or implemented a system of internal controls, which would include appropriate segregation of duties, that would likely be effective in preventing, or detecting and correcting, noncompliance related to the eligibility determination of a child receiving meals. The School Corporation could not provide documentation supporting the eligibility for 10 of 40 students that received free or reduced-price meals for fiscal year 2022-2023. Of the 30 students for which documentation was provided, the School Corporation could not provide documentation that the one student’s benefits were calculated properly. Due to the lack of supporting documentation we were unable to determine the School Corporation's compliance with the Eligibility compliance requirement. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Juli Windsor Contact Phone Number:765-689-9131 Views of Responsible Official: We concur with the finding Description of Corrective Action Plan: This will include all reimbursements which are submitted to the treasurer must be signed by the school cafeteria managers and the food service director. The school will also implement policies to ensure that the Verification of Free and Reduced-Price applications have an adequate internal control to ensure the validity of the free and reduced applications. This will provide for segregation of duties to ensure appropriate reviews, approvals, and oversight are taking place. Anticipated Completion Date: April 2024

Finding 2023-007: Timely Submission of Single Audit Report (SAR) and Document Collection Form (DCF) To eliminate this finding recurring in future periods, POF will create an internal Annual Audit Plan (AAP), identifying required tasks, deliverables, due dates, and responsible internal and external personnel for each task. POF’s AAP will include five-six (5-6) months' lead time prior to future mandatory submission dates. Simultaneously, POF will communicate the AAP timelines with the Audit Engagement Partner to ensure audit staffing continuity and availability. POF will achieve accurate, complete, and timely future SAR and DCF submissions through incorporating these process improvements along with strengthening its internal controls, gaining experience in its first two Single Audits, and in acquiring an understanding of the Auditor’s role in verifying compliance and the adequacy of related supporting documentation.
