Finding 2022-002 ? Procurement, Suspension, and Debarment Contact Person: Michael R. Castilleja, Director of Procurement & Other Support Services Current Status: Correction of this finding is in-progress. Anticipated Completion Date: December 31, 2023 Condition: The University did not maintain records for procurements sufficient to detail the history of procurement, including the rationale for the method of procurement, selection of contract type, contractor selection or rejection, and the basis for the contract price. Additionally, as required by the University?s Procurement and Bid Policy, the University did not maintain and provide documentation of the performance of an annual pricing review in order to assess whether preferred vendors continue to provide comparable pricing to other vendors. Identification of repeat finding: N/A UIW is committed to complying with the Procurement, Suspension, and Debarment regulations as indicated in the Uniform Guidance Procurement Standards (2 CFR ? 200.317 through 200.327). The University?s practice to maintain records for procurements which include the rationale for the method of procurement, selection of contract type, price analysis (including bidding process) and justification of vendor selection are currently being followed. Due to the urgency and state of emergency the University was under, it hindered our efforts of documenting our procurement practices. An oversight of the Procurement Standards has been reviewed and we are confident that our policies and procedures are sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the regulations. In addition, the University will implement a Sole Source/Preferred Vendor Form that will require justification and evidence of a vendor meeting the requirements of the purchase within a reasonable, allowable and consistent manner. ? Sole Source Vendors will be identified by department needs and may be requested at time of purchase requisition. Determination will be based on vendor availability of products and needs. ? Preferred Vendors will be maintained for the year and must be requested for market pricing review to include date of request, vendor category and price for like items. The Preferred Vendors list will be maintained in the Procurement Department and may be requested for review by initiator of purchase requisitions. All Sole Source/Preferred Vendor request should be reviewed/signed by requestor, a Procurement Officer, and the CFO & VP for Finance and Administration.

Finding 2022-001 ? Special Tests and Provisions ? Enrollment Reporting (Student Financial Assistance Cluster) Contact Persons: Diana Dimas, Registrar?s Office Cristen Alecia, Office of Financial Assistance Current Status: Correction of this finding is in-progress. Anticipated Completion Date: December 31, 2023 Condition: The University of the Incarnate Word did not accurately or timely report student status changes to the NSLDS for 6 out of 60 students selected for testing. Identification of Repeat Finding: 2021-001, 2020-001, 2019-002 While the condition reported above is considered a repeat finding, it is important to note that the errors are different this year and that these findings are not a reflection of the university ignoring previous findings or failing to make changes, but rather a reflection of the complexity of enrollment reporting. There were no inaccurate or untimely attendance level changes, and the official withdrawals were reported accurately and timely. In this year?s errors, we had a student who graduated outside of a normal conferral date, causing them not to be reported during our normal degree conferral report to NSC. The Registrar?s Office is putting changes in place to either eliminate out-of-cycle conferrals, or increase the number of conferral and reporting dates to effectively capture all graduates. We know that only 6 students were caught up in this out-of-cycle graduation, as it was a specific exception for the School of Osteopathic Medicine, and is not a wide-spread issue. We had two unofficial withdrawals reported later than 60 days ? at 69 and 70 days. While the withdrawal and the changes were processed timely, the timing of the roster from NSLDS compared to the submission to NSC caused the report not to be acknowledged until after the 60 days had passed. The Office of Financial Assistance is researching the option of manually reporting unofficial withdrawals outside of the monthly reporting cycle in order to eliminate this problem. The Registrar?s Office will review the roster and NSC submission schedules to see if changes need to be made in order to better align reporting dates. We had three students inaccurately reported as withdrawn for the summer semester. These students were at least half-time in the preceding Spring and the following Fall, and therefore were not required to be reported as withdrawn. The Office of Financial Assistance and the Registrar?s Office will work together to research options in Banner and with NSC. It may be necessary to create a separate withdrawal code to identify summer withdrawals that should not be reported as withdrawn, and create a report to monitor the fall enrollment for these students in case they later withdraw from Fall and transition to a withdrawal which must be reported. The Banner system alone does not allow for the complicated logic mandated for summer reporting in the NSLDS Enrollment Reporting Guide. Our offices will continue to work in partnership to resolve these enrollment reporting issues.

FY 2022 SFA Audit Corrective Action Plan Audit Firm: RSM US LLP 30 S Wacker Drive, Suite 3300 Chicago, IL 60606 Audit Period: 1/1/2022 ? 12/31/2022 Comments on Findings and Recommendations: Finding 2022-001 ? Error in Reporting for NSLDS Finding: Herzing University did not properly report the student enrollment change for a student who received federal student aid to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). Condition: The University did not report a student?s Program-Level or Campus-Level enrollment status change to NSLDS. Out of the 60 students tested, we noted 1 student (1.7%) whose status change at the Program-Level and Campus-Level was not reported to NSLDS. Action Taken: In this instance, the student identified was withdrawn from the University and was correctly reported to NSLDS as such through our standard enrollment reporting processes. The student then subsequently re-enrolled at the University in the subsequent academic period becoming an Active student, and then withdrew again prior to our next standard enrollment reporting process occurring (one month after the previously reported withdrawn status). At the point of the second standard enrollment reporting timeframe, the student status was once again withdrawn, therefore an update did not occur to their enrollment status. Our process did not have a mechanism to identify the student changing statuses in between those reporting periods so that the active enrollment status was reported and then changed back to withdrawn versus simply staying at a withdrawn status. In August 2022, Herzing University updated our enrollment reporting policy to send in enrollment reporting biweekly instead of monthly. This was done to ensure that each student?s enrollment status was accurately reported as soon as possible and to prevent issues that occur from delays in proper enrollment statuses being reported to NSLDS. This update inherently decreased the likelihood that status timing issues would occur given the condensed timeframe for reporting. In addition, as of May 1st, 2023 Herzing University has developed and implemented an exception reporting process that will identify any student that has status updates that occur but reverts back to the original status within the timeframe of the two enrollment reporting periods. Using the student identified in this finding as an example, if the student is at a withdrawn status at the first enrollment reporting period, then moves to an active status immediately after that but then withdraws again within that 2 week window and therefore goes back to a withdrawn status in the subsequent enrollment reporting period, while our standard reporting would still show the student withdrawn for both standard enrollment reporting timeframes, the exception report will flag that student for review since a status change occurred in between the two withdrawn statuses being reported out. Upon review of the exception report, all relevant status progressions will be correctly reported to NSLDS. The required corrective action for Finding 2022-001 listed in the SFA audit for the period 1/1/2022 ? 12/31/2022 was completed on 5/1/2023. The person responsible for completion of the corrective action was Kevin McShane, Vice President of Financial Aid & Compliance.

2022-001 HEERF Reporting Recommendation: We recommend that the University review their reporting policies and procedures to ensure accurate reporting. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Immediate action was taken to update the quarterly report and post the updated report to our university?s website. Error was made due to data file showing category under other uses in previous quarterly reports. When new quarterly report was prepared the amount was reported on proper lost revenue line but was not deducted from the other uses total. This resulted in an overstatement of expenditures. An additional step was implemented to confirm total balance with data spreadsheet balance of expenditures. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Jennifer Martell, Controller Planned completion date for corrective action plan: This was immediately corrected when brought to our attention on 5/26/22 for the quarterly report ending 3/31/22 which was originally posted to our website on 4/10/22.

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.

State of Missouri Single Audit Corrective Action Plan Year Ended June 30, 2022 State Agency: Department of Social Services (DSS) ? Family Support Division (FSD) Audit Finding Number: 2022-005 ? Pandemic Electronic Benefit Transfer Food Benefits Name of the contact person responsible for corrective action: Elizabeth Roberts-Smith Anticipated completion date for corrective action: Completed Recommendation: The DSS through the FSD strengthen internal controls to ensure P-EBT program benefit issuances are in accordance with the state plan, and review and correct the overpayments for the children identified in this finding. DSS Response: The DSS agrees with this finding. The DSS agrees that the two children identified in the report were incorrectly issued benefits. Recognizing the complexity for families seeking to appropriately access the benefit, the process by which school children are determined eligible and issued P-EBT benefits was modified in the state plan submitted by the State of Missouri to the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) for the 2021-2022 school year. The P-EBT state plan for the 2021-2022 school year was approved by FNS on June 6, 2022. Eligibility for P-EBT is now determined at the individual child level based on COVID-related absences and qualification for federal free and reduced lunch benefits. For the 2021-2022 school year, local education authorities (LEA?s) submit lists of students determined eligible to the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE). DESE then submits the approved eligibility file to DSS with the name of each eligible child and the amount of benefit to be issued on a P-EBT card. DSS then issues the benefit. Corrective Action is as follows: DSS has reviewed the overpayments and referred the children identified in this finding to the Missouri Program Integrity Unit (PIU) for claims processing, if the funds can be recovered. This is outlined in the FNS approved Missouri P-EBT state plan.
