To ensure transparency and fairness in the vendor selection process, we examine total costs estimates from each vendor and analyze their reputations, experience, customer feedback, and ability to provide innovative solutions. We use this information to make informed decisions and the rationale behind our vendor selection process. When searching for vendors we will keep documentation that displays the cost from each vendor and the rational for selecting a specific vendor. Suspension and Debarment – Beginning July 2024 the Assistant Accounting Manager will run reports annually in July from sam.gov and from FMS and compare the 2 files to make sure that we don’t have vendors in our system that are on the debarment list. The files will then be forwarded to the Accounting Manager via email for review and approval. The approval email and the 2 reports will be saved in our shared drive as proof of file review. All new vendors will be checked in sam.gov before allowing purchases to be placed. The review sheets will be emailed to the Accounting Manager for review and approval, these will also be saved in our shared drive.

Type of Finding: Material weakness in internal control over compliance relating to inadequate documentation and controls in place to ensure costs are reasonable and intended for the program charged. Views of Responsible Officials: Management accepts the finding. Effective internal control over the documentation of secondary review of financial reports, timely filing, and disclosed demographics contained within the reports, which can be attributed to a lack of documentation of review and controls in place for submission of a report when responsible employee is out of office during the due date. Authorized personnel review was not documented, and a performance report was not filed timely and was filed with incorrect demographics. More thorough training of staff, along with careful supervisory review and documentation of review of report submissions prior to filing would likely have prevented these errors. Corrective action: A process for secondary review of all financial and programmatic reports will be developed in each region.
