State of Missouri Single Audit Corrective Action Plan Year Ended June 30, 2022 State Agency: Department of Social Services (DSS) ? Division of Finance and Administrative Services (DFAS) Audit Finding Number: 2022 -006 ? DSS Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) Reporting Name of the contact person responsible for corrective action: Sheena Frazer Anticipated completion date for corrective action: N/A Recommendation: The DSS through the DFAS strengthen internal controls related to FFATA reporting by having supervisors maintain documentation of reviews performed of the information reported to the FSRS. In addition, the DFAS should timely complete FFATA reporting in accordance with the applicable requirements. DSS Response: The DSS partially agrees with this finding. The DSS does not agree that documentation of supervisory reviews directly correlates to strong internal controls. The DSS adheres to formalized procedures for FFATA reporting which includes managerial oversight and contends documented reviews may be preferred but are not required by regulation. The DSS experienced a transition of staff during the timeframe in question and the FSRS system does not permit users to access and compliance data or reports uploaded in the system by an alternate user. The FFATA does not impose a deadline on federal awarding agencies to report federal award information in FSRS. Additionally, the FFATA does not impose a deadline on direct recipients to report the subaward of secondary federal awards issued beyond the month following the original obligation date. Therefore, the timeliness of DSS? FFATA reports is also dependent on the date the federal awarding agency makes the federal award information available in FSRS. These circumstances allowed for exceptions identified. The DSS has or will upload reports for all exception items to ensure the information is available in USA Spending. Corrective action planned is as follows: The DSS will continue to adhere to written procedures and maintain strong internal controls to maintain FFATA reporting compliance based on available guidance.

It was brought to our attention that we are unable to update our third transmittal to NSC due an uploading error with Jenzabar. Once we were notified of this error, we began communicating with NSC to find an alternative route to submit the third transmittal. The third transmittal was submitted but we later learned that the file was rejected. Unfortunately during that time, the notification of the error message was inadvertently overlooked due to the challenges we were faced with during the recovery period of Hurricane Ida. To mitigate this from occurring in the future, we have discussed changing how and when our enrollment transmittal data will be reported. Furthermore, we had participated in training and scheduled additional training opportunities with Jenzabar to create an errorless transmittal process.

Current efforts are focused on optimizing available resources to provide the highest return on value. UWSA currently performs periodic reviews of cloud-based third-party internal controls during precontract evaluations and at the time of contract renewals. This includes obtaining and reviewing service organization audit reports, if available. UWSA will evaluate the efficacy of increasing the periodicity of these reviews to an annual basis. UWSA will also evaluate means for communicating identified expectations systemwide, up to and including the creation of a new policy.

CAP for Finding: 2022-104 Auditor Recommendation: Improve Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act reporting procedures to ensure accurate award information, including the federal award identification number, is being used. Planned Corrective Action: The Wisconsin Department of Administration?s (Department or DOA) Bureau of Financial Management (BFM) and Division of Energy, Housing and Community Resources (DEHCR) will work together to implement procedures to ensure the accuracy of the award information that is transmitted to the Division of Executive Budget and Finance (DEBF), Systems, Operations and Federal Funds Team (Federal Funds Team) for Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) reporting. The procedures may include, among other things, DEHCR?s provision of the federal award document containing the federal award identification number (FAIN) to BFM concurrent with the request to establish the award for reporting. Anticipated Completion Date: June 30, 2023 Auditor Recommendation: Improve Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act reporting procedures to ensure rejected subaward information is reviewed and communicated to the appropriate program staff for investigation and resolution. Planned Corrective Action: The Department will improve FFATA reporting procedures to ensure rejected subaward information is reviewed and communicated to the appropriate program staff for investigation and resolution. DEBF?s Federal Funds Team will communicate error messages it receives for rejected reports in a timely manner to agency and program staff originating the reports, and the error log received from the FFATA Subaward Reporting System (FSRS) will be made available electronically for agency program staff as well as maintained for documentation purposes. Anticipated Completion Date: June 30, 2023 Auditor Recommendation: Improve Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act reporting procedures to ensure documentation of rejected subaward information is maintained to demonstrate that the Department of Administration attempted to enter the subaward information; and Planned Corrective Action: The Department will improve FFATA reporting procedures to ensure documentation of rejected subaward information is maintained to demonstrate that the Department attempted to enter the subaward information in FSRS. As previously noted, the Federal Funds Team will communicate to agency and program staff the error messages received for rejected reports and make available and maintain for archival purposes error logs received from FSRS. Additionally, the Federal Funds Team will record in the Wisconsin FFATA reporting system if an upload of the subaward information cannot be completed during the intended reporting period due to reasons that are beyond its control, such as delays in the federal government?s assignment of federal award identification numbers (FAINs) for new grant awards. Anticipated Completion Date: June 30, 2023 Auditor Recommendation: Improve Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act reporting procedures to ensure all required subawards of $30,000 or more, including any amendments or modifications to a subaward, are identified and submitted to the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act Subaward Reporting System in a timely manner. Planned Corrective Action: The Department takes seriously its responsibility to ensure all required subawards of $30,000 or more, including any amendments or modifications to a subaward, are identified and submitted to FSRS in a timely manner. The Federal Funds Team in fulfilling its enterprise role related to FSRS reporting, delivered agency and program staff training on the requirements of 2 CFR s. 170, in February 2023, concurrent with the introduction of its new Wisconsin FFATA reporting system, and will highlight FFATA reporting requirements in its monthly reporting timeline communications. As previously noted, BFM and DEHCR will work together to implement improved procedures to ensure the accuracy of the award information that is transmitted to DEBF. They will also implement procedures to verify the completeness of the data that is uploaded to FSRS, including confirming the availability of the data in USAspending.gov.

CAP for Finding: 2022-303 DATE: March 21, 2023 TO: Lisa Kasel, Assistant Financial Audit Director Legislative Audit Bureau FROM: Barry Kasten, Director Bureau of Fiscal Services Department of Health Services SUBJECT: Corrective Action Plan ? Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act Reporting ? Immunization Cooperative Agreements Department staff has reviewed the Legislative Audit Bureau?s (LAB) interim audit memo for Finding 2022-303: Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act Reporting ? Immunization Cooperative Agreements. This is the department?s Corrective Action Plan. ? Recommendation (2022-303): Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act Reporting? Immunization Cooperative Agreements We recommend the Wisconsin Department of Health Services: ? Update the queries used to identify subawards in the State?s accounting system, STAR, that are subject to Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act reporting to ensure all required subawards are identified; and ? Ensure all required subwards of $30,000 or more, including any amendments or modifications to a subaward, are identified and submitted to the Federal Fund Accountability and Transparency Act Subaward Reporting System in a timely manner. Wisconsin Department of Health Services Planned Corrective Action: BFS agrees that the circumstances shaped by the COVID emergency required BFS to prioritize tasks critical to essential functions over those with little to no financial impact. Furthermore, during this same period, there was turnover in this position. Lack of priority and new staffing led to late reporting. Additionally, procedural misunderstandings contributed to continued reporting delays of the correcting items identified in the first finding. The summer and early Fall of 2022 allowed for additional research, clarification, and catching up. Since November of 2022 there have been timely monthly uploads of collected data and it has continued to be reported monthly. BFS also agrees that LAB identified several contracts not yet reported. Upon discovery, BFS made it a priority to take steps necessary to immediately report the missing contracts on the FSRS site.
