Anticipated Completion Date: Management estimates that additional processes will be in place by December 31, 2024.

I was a newly elected official in 2023 with no prior training in the County Clerk’s office. After this finding was brought to my attention, I created a process where all grants received are tracked as are the expenditures for each grant so they can accurately be reported.

I was not the clerk in 2023, so I don’t feel as I can respond, however, I will work to see this is resolved. We are implementing new software to better track all financials.

Material Weakness over Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) Reporting Repeat Finding: Yes Auditee’s Corrective Action Plan: The City has purchased Workday, an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, and implemented the software with the assistance of Accenture consultants. Although Workday is “live” as of August 2022, the City is currently working to refine the software and fully utilize functionality. The Workday grants modules requires the grant funding source be defined prior to grant approval and fields are available for the AL titles and numbers and sub-recipients’ information. The implementation of the Workday grants modules centralizes much of the grant management function by requiring the agencies to upload the grant documents into Workday. The City has: • Held weekly meetings for two years with agency grant representatives to design and configure the Workday grant module. • Uploaded the grant award, sponsor information and grant budget data into a Workday. • Implemented a “new grant” request which uses a Workday business process. • In the process of reviewing and correcting recoverable costs per grant award so it is properly recorded. • Within Workday we are able to track grant performance period, CFDA, manage and capture grant related expenditures and calculate automated billing to sponsors on recoverable costs Business processes have been developed and implemented in Workday’s grant management module to include: Definition of the grant funding source by creating a system-generated grant work tag (identifier) upon receipt of the Sponsor’s Notice of Award; populated fields in Workday with passthrough award data with Prime Sponsor and Bill to sponsor Billing data, and modification of the create award process to add the Grants Management Office to final approval. In FY 24 the City implemented a citywide Grants Management Committee coordinated by the Mayor's Office of Performance and Innovation. Through feedback from this workgroup we identified an expanded scope of responsibility for the Grants Management Office; including oversight and compliance, technology, training and budget monitoring. In the short term a new Grants Director position was created and onboarding is to occur in the first quarter of FY25. Contact Person: Michael Moiseyev, Chief Financial Officer, Baltimore City.

This audit has taught me a lot concerning what is required with the SEFA report in the County Budget process. I will print out a copy of all Community Development Block Grant Funds that were expensed in the year in a report from QuickBooks.

I will also follow up with Alan Lutes, Executive Director with Ozark Foothills Regional Planning Commission, when I complete the SEFA report and have their office review the report to make sure all Community Development Block Grant Funds are included that were expenses that year from their office. In addition, I will include all supporting documents in the budget process to review with the County Commissioners at the time of the budget approval.

During our review of the December 31, 2023 Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) prepared by management, we noted that controls over the preparation of the SEFA were not properly designed resulting in adjustments to the SEFA for amounts passed through to subrecipients that were identified during the audit. Recommendation: We recommend management review current internal controls over preparation and tracking of federal expenditures to ensure that all federal awards are captured and reported in the correct period and that internal controls are properly designed to detect and correct errors to the SEFA. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: ACT accepts the auditors' recommendation. In preparing the SEFA for future Single Audit periods, ACT will update its processes to include a more rigorous review of the SEFA schedule prior to submission to the auditors. The process will include preparation of the SEFA by ACT’s accounting team, followed by a review and signoff by ACT’s Program Officer and the CEO. An internal schedule prepared by the accounting team that totals amounts separately for beneficiary payments and for subrecipient pass-through payments will be included as part of the review process for the SEFA and presented for signoff by the Program Officer and CEO. For further discussion, please contact Heather Peeler, President and CEO at healther.peeler@actforalexandria.org. 703-739-7778.
