Management concurs. The City will establish and enforce comprehensive subrecipient monitoring protocols. This includes developing standardized monitoring procedures, providing staff training on monitoring requirements, allocating sufficient resources for monitoring activities, and implementing mechanisms for regular review and documentation of monitoring efforts. By strengthening subreceipient monitoring practices, the City can mitigate risks, ensure compliance with grant requirements, and safeguard the effective utilization of grant funds.

Circle Health acknowledges and agrees with this finding. We did have contracts in place with subrecipients, but they were outdated. Both program and finance staff work closely with subrecipients and ensure that they are aware of the grant requirements, reporting requirements, allowable costs, etc. Subrecipient monitoring is performed on a regular basis via review of submitted invoices, programmatic meetings and performance reviews. We will create new contracts and have all outstanding, unsigned agreements signed. We will maintain a checklist of due dates for all subrecipient agreements and review periodically throughout the year.

Management concurs with this finding. As noted in the response to Subrecipient Monitoring – Improper Communication to Subrecipient, Subrecipient vs. contractor differentiation has been an area of continued improvement. Management believes recent efforts to properly differentiate between subrecipients and contractors has resulted in accurate determinations. However, documentation, ongoing monitoring, and communication are areas for further improvement. To that end, Management has implemented a new subrecipient/contractor determination form that includes both documentation of the determination and a checklist for ongoing compliance and monitoring for both subrecipients and contractors. This form requires that a subrecipient monitoring plan be put in place which will address compliance with all applicable federal award conditions including Single Audits. Management believes implementation of this form/process will reduce the risk of further noncompliance.

Recommendation: Procedures for subrecipient monitoring to meet federal statutes, regulations, and terms and conditions of the awards should be developed and documented. Internal controls should be designed, implemented, and documented within the subrecipient monitoring procedures to ensure compliance with 2 CFR section 200.332. Subrecipient monitoring activities should be performed and documented. Ac􀆟on Taken: BGCDC is working on an updated policy and procedure manual that is conducive to Uniform Guidance. The addition of a Compliance Department will aid in adhering to the appropriate monitoring procedures regarding subawards. The contact persons responsible for this corrective action plan are Alan Branch, Sr VP of Compliance and Workforce Development, the new Compliance Director, Wendi Speed, CFO, and the entire Finance Team. The anticipated completion date is June 30, 2025.

Finding: The Department of Health did not have adequate internal controls over and did not comply with fiscal monitoring requirements for the Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity for Infectious Diseases program. Questioned Costs: Assistance Listing # 93.323 93.323 COVID-19 Amount $0 Status: Corrective action not taken Corrective Action: The Department has implemented corrective actions to address the prior year’s finding and does not concur with this finding. The State Auditor’s Office (SAO) did not report on the subrecipient review process in its entirety. The Department’s Fiscal Monitoring Unit (FMU) is not an audit department and functions differently than what SAO recommended in the finding. Federal guidance does not require a certain percentage of samples to be selected to ensure adequate review. The Department’s subrecipient monitoring process is comprehensive and involves the steps outlined below: • Complete initial risk assessment of subrecipients post contract execution to determine the level of support required from each entity as backup documentation for payment requests. • Program contract managers review supporting documentation prior to payment. • FMU conducts subrecipient monitoring visits to ensure each entity has adequate internal controls to comply with federal requirements. This includes: o Reviewing at least three months of invoices submitted by subrecipients and judgmentally selecting transactions based on subject matter expertise about DOH, specific programs, and federal guidance. The review includes ensuring adequate supporting documentation is maintained for invoiced amounts, such as timesheets and receipts. o Reviewing entity policies, procedures, and history of compliance. o Assessing manual and automated internal controls, and applicable cost allocation methodology. o Reviewing applicable contracts. Each entity has a consistent internal control structure across all funding types. As such, FMU performs subrecipient monitoring site reviews of the entity, not for a specific grant. The reviewers are required to document all grants received by the entity and select a few transactions from each, if applicable. FMU typically selects to review a quarter of the invoiced amounts. If a grant award is not represented in the invoices selected, FMU will select additional invoices to ensure all awards are included. Similar conditions noted in this finding were previously reported in finding 2022-033.

Questioned Costs: Assistance Listing # 21.027 COVID-19 Amount $0 Status: Corrective action complete Corrective Action: During 2022, the Department identified the need to determine subrecipient and contractor classifications on the face sheet of all contracts. The Department implemented the following actions: • Added a check box to all federal contract template face sheets to designate whether a contract is issued to a subrecipient or contractor. • Added all federal subaward required data elements to the face sheet.

Finding: The Department of Commerce did not have adequate internal controls over and did not comply with requirements to perform risk assessments for subrecipients of the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds. Questioned Costs: Assistance Listing # 21.027 COVID-19 Amount $0 Status: Corrective action not taken Corrective Action: The Department does not concur with the audit finding. The Legislature appropriated Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF) to the Department’s Energy Division to award assistance to utility service providers to eliminate customer account arrearages. The Department maintains that internal controls were in place for the program requirements. A risk assessment was not necessary because all utility providers who applied and served eligible citizens were awarded funding. Payments for the program ended in 2022 and the program is no longer funded by the Department. As a result, the Department does not plan to implement any corrective action. Similar conditions noted in this finding were previously reported in finding 2022-021 for the Emergency Rental Assistance program which was also funded by SLFRF.

Finding: The Washington State Department of Transportation did not have adequate internal controls over and did not comply with subrecipient monitoring requirements for the Formula Grants for Rural Areas program. Questioned Costs: Assistance Listing # 20.509 Amount $0 Status: Corrective action in progress Corrective Action: The Washington State Department of Transportation concurs with the finding. As of October 2023, the Public Transportation Division (PTD) had conducted all five site visits identified in the condition of this finding. The PTD is also planning on implementing the auditor’s recommendations, specifically to: • Update the PTD policies and procedures to document the risk-based site visit approach more accurately. This update will clarify how an organization’s risk assessment score impacts the timing and number of administrative and financial site visits. This update will not impact capital reviews and drug and alcohol site visits because PTD staff conduct them every two years regardless of risk assessment scores. • Evaluate new ways for management, supervisors, and staff to monitor site visit completion and established due dates more effectively. Once a new process is developed, management will ensure policies and/or procedures are updated and communicate the new process to impacted staff.

The Department of Human Services, Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS) agrees that for fiscal year 2023 it did not provide at the time of subaward one (1) of the fourteen (14) elements required by the federal Uniform Guidance (UG) pass-through entity requirements. More specifically, DMHAS did not communicate to subrecipients at the time of subaward the date on which DMHAS received its Notice of Award from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (SMAHSA). This single piece of information was omitted in each of the ten (10) samples tested. It is important to note, however, that DMHAS could certify that it did not communicate to any pool of applicants or subrecipients that funding was available until such time as DMHAS received its federal award. The failure to include the federal date of award was the result of clerical/ministerial error, and DMHAS’s inability to evidence the federal award date in its software system, known as the Contract Information Management System (CIMS). CIMS is accessible to subrecipients and DMHAS relies on it to document and track subawards. DMHAS satisfied every remaining subaward information element of the UG pass-through entity requirements with the exception of subsection (ii) – the subrecipient’s Unique Entity Identifier (UEI), for two (2) of the ten (10) samples tested. More specifically, DMHAS did not reference two (2) subrecipients UEI numbers at the time of each subrecipient’s subaward. It is important to note that DMHAS has the UEIs available to it, but it could not establish that it referenced two (2) of the UEIs at the time of award. The failure to include the UEI for each of the two (2) subrecipients was the result of clerical/ministerial error, and DMHAS’s inability to enter the data for the particular subrecipients into CIMS. Each of the two (2) samples related to a “specialty contract” that cannot be captured in CIMS. DMHAS has already undertaken efforts to update its software system and replace CIMS with SAGE AGATE. Although federal regulation does not require that every data element referenced in 2 CFR 200.332(a)(1) be available in a single document, as part of its ongoing systems improvement plans, the DMHAS is completing the procurement of a new contract information management system, SAGE AGATE, so that all federal award and contract information is available in a single report through a single software application. DMHAS has prepared a purchase order for SAGE AGATE, the State funds have been appropriated and the DMHAS is in the process of scheduling a kick off meeting, along with 3-day training sessions. The DMHAS SAGE AGATE Scope of Work includes IntelliGrants software, as well as limited customization of the IntelliGrants software to satisfy any needs particular to DMHAS. DMHAS will ensure that the final software package provides DMHAS with the means to document and communicate to subrecipients at the time of subaward each of the requisite elements of 2 CFR 200.332(a)(1), including the Federal Date of Award and the UEI. In the interim, DMHAS has drafted an updated Notice of Subrecipient Award Template, which Template includes every component required by 2 CFR 200.332(a)(1). Upon DMHAS executive review and approval of the Template, Contract staff in the DMHAS Fiscal Unit will utilize the Template for each Notice of Subrecipient Award. DMHAS anticipates that the Template will be superseded by a Notice maintained within, and/or generated by, SAGE AGATE. Prior to the date of this CAP, DMHAS Program/Initiative Managers throughout the various DMHAS treatment service and support units were responsible for preparing and executing Notices of Subrecipient Award. As a result of the Significant Deficiency identified in this The Department of Human Services, Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS) agrees that for fiscal year 2023 it did not provide at the time of subaward one (1) of the fourteen (14) elements required by the federal Uniform Guidance (UG) pass-through entity requirements.

As a result of the Significant Deficiency identified in this 2023 Audit, and in order to correct and mitigate against clerical/ministerial errors, DMHAS is transferring responsibility for the preparation and execution of Notices of Subrecipient Award from Program/Initiative Managers, to the DMHAS Fiscal Unit, Contract Manager (and the Contract Manager’s Contract Administration staff). Such staff will have total SAGE AGATE system access, and be best suited to ensure that Notices of Subrecipient Award comply with 2 CFR 200.332. Finally, as a preventive action, the DMHAS Compliance Unit will audit the issuance of post-contract negotiation Notices of Award in three (3) months, and again in six (6) months. The internal audit will sample no less than ten (10) newly awarded/renewed deficit-funded contracts for substance use disorder services, and will measure compliance with every element identified in 2 CFR 200.332.

Finding 2023-043 – Corrective Action Plan Parameters regarding charter management organizations are in the charter school application, but additionally, Charter Management Organizations applicants will be asked to file a plan with the Office of School Opportunities on how they will avoid conflicts of interest and related party transactions or insufficient segregation of duties between the Charter School and CMO. This request will be made by the Office of School Opportunities to the applicant after the applicant has received an approved completeness check. This answer will be reviewed by RIDE’s legal office before anything proceeds forward with the application". Under current practice, all application teams need to complete an RFP, with a full public comment period and public hearings and approval by the Council on Elementary and Special Education, in order to open a charter. RIDE has included a question in this year's annual subrecipient monitoring survey (which feeds into the annual risk assessment), asking Charters if they have a relationship with a Charter Management Organization (CMO). If they respond 'yes', we ask if they have written internal controls, policies and procedures specific to the CMO relationship and how the Charter School mitigates potential conflicts of interest, related party transactions and/or insufficient segregation of duties. We request that they upload a any written internal control, policies and procedures specific to the CMO relationship (if any). The survey with this revised language was sent out to subrecipients on April 19, 2024.
